Take my upvote!
Take my poor man’s gold 🥇
I don’t miss gold, and I forgot about it being a thing until now.
Remember how they took silver, a free joke gift, and monetized it?
Remember how they took gold awards, a user made bot, and monetized it?
It’s actually a nice way to fund a server, then Reddit shit our 200 different type of it and downgrade “gilding” to just mid tier award.
I know your comment was written in that style on purpose, yet it still made me roll my eyes. Well done mate
Gosh I hate award speech edits

Take my upvote and leave!
Edit: wow! thanks for the upvotes! my most upvoted comment is about female ejaculation…oh well!
This but unironically
Accurate.
One of those is not like the rest and doesn’t truly deserve to be on the list – “username checks out”. All the others provide absolutely no value, while “username checks out”, at least, lets you notice a potential humorous situation which you might not have noticed otherwise.
Good point.
Edit: ahh, I mean: Underrated Comment.
The real LPT are in the comments
Username doesn’t check out.
Sadly, I was born with uncheck outable username disorder.
Same
The only time my username would have been relevant was under discussions of Glass Onion, as that was the name of the maguffin, but I took a loooong time to watch it and was avoiding any discussions about it because detective story.
Wouldn’t that make you quite unique?
Username checks out!
I’ve been on the receiving end of “underrated comment” and I was surprised to learn it’s not actually just vapor. You don’t usually get comment karma on a post 24+ hours after it’s posted, but on the couple of occasions when someone said this about my comment, it started the ball rolling on people reading and upvoting my comment. In other words, apparently it was underrated, because people weren’t seeing it.
There’s no karma totals on lemmy so who cares, but it was interesting to learn it isn’t entirely fluff, it’s performing a duty in the comment thread ecosystem.

We should probably stop masturbating the dead horse.
No. But I’m down to stop talking about Reddit if you want
This is what I don’t get. I feel like one of the main things I see here is talk about reddit. Ffs, move on
I hear you, and I’m 100％ ready to, also, but its understandable for people to keep talking about reddit by comparison when lemmy is clearly essentially a reddit clone.
Yeah, there are people on reddit who still talk about Digg. I think this is just what happens. It’ll slow down with time, as lemmy gains its own identity.
Sure… … and maybe this isn’t worth thinking or talking about, but what does that really mean, Lemmy having its own identity, you know?
I began chatting with people on IRC (mIRC up in here, pIRCh losers get lost), and some html chat rooms, ICQ and IM (a/s/l?) then waaay later found myself on some less desireable forums and Digg for a while, and I remmeber when it went south, and remember seeing reddit. I stayed away until the pandemic when google searches started showing reddit thread results and I got sucked in.
What I mean to say, through all of those incarnations of talking to strangers on the internet, I never felt any of them had distinct personalities from any others, other than the slang that people used.
for reddit, it was “username checks out”, " this", “TIL” etc etc. I left when every conversation felt the same. Anyway, I dont think I have a point, other than Lemmy is a fedirated reddit clone, and I’m not sure any online community has had an identifiable identity, except from some of the places that everyone just tries to say the shittiest thing they can think of
when lemmy is clearly essentially a reddit clone.
The apps blurring the lines between the two platforms don’t help too lol
The apps blurring the line never mattered… The platform itself is designed almost entirely around how reddit is/was.
Y’all ultra butthurt over a shitpost in c/memes?!

Not only bitter, lots of people here are dissing reddit like it’s a recent ex.
Some of those frequently repeated comments (well not stuff like “this”) are completely organic memes that have come out of that community, which most of us were part of, me personally for over a decade. Now we suddenly hate everything we were part of?
I’m kinda tired of the reddit bashing here. I’m not going to leave over it, but it doesn’t add any value whereas some of the other content has been excellent.
Redditors have always hated Redditors! You think we’re going to stop just because we left Reddit?!?

I can’t wait until the bitter people find out that these reddit behaviors are actually just human behaviors. Let people enjoy themselves.

(Srsly tho, this whole post is a reddit-hates-reddit circle jerk using stale memes from reddit to make fun of stale comments from reddit. It’s beat and it stinks like letting someone who doesn’t even know you control your emotions.)

I remember when people “gave out” reddit silver. And then reddit stole the idea and made actual silver you could pay for.
I thought that was a step further. Originally it was gold until Reddit made that a thing you could pay them for so people started doing silver and the wheel turned again

Second that

I understand why it’s not remembered positively, but this is what got me into Reddit. A bunch of dumbasses around the world sharing a sense of humour with other dumbasses on the other side.
It was funny. The threads were hilarious. I had tons of those old threads screenshotted for memories.
It gave Reddit the personality it had. The flawed, annoying, absolutely toxic yet truly remarkable personality it possessed.
I would love for Lemmy to have one of its own but I truly miss the absolute random bullshittery that Reddit had. I see it happen sometimes on Lemmy. And the hope that I’ll get that feeling again keeps me on here.
