I agree with everyone here on this, Lemmings is appropriate. Especially since most of the community likes it, I think choosing something that the community vibes with is important.

I totally get where you’re coming from but I think humanity’s tribal nature makes us want to identify with something on the platform we’re on… Some type of name that defines all of us.

Lol I think over my 11 years on reddit I only had 1.6k karma… And while I love internet points as much as the next guy it’s much healthier not to even see an overall count on here. Makes me hope that they don’t add it so I don’t have to be constantly worrying about what my overall score is.

Agreed, especially with how new Lemmy is, it just really feels like it needs our engagement to succeed and get more people to join.

This. I usually try to avoid commenting just “This” and try to give more explanation why I’m saying that. Feel like that’s the proper way of doing it.

Yeah I recently signed up for an account there and am going to explore kbin as well!

Yeah after I commented on this post I made one and have been more active within my first 24 hours on Lemmy than I have in my 11 years on Reddit.

Ironically enough, Reddit. I also use Google News on the side but most of the time I’m going to go to Reddit to see the discussion, which is why I kind of am missing that on here.

Hopefully with more users we’ll get more content and be able to replicate that experience!

I think you can just use whichever one you find most convenient, I would wager lemmy.ml would be your best bet as it’s the most active instance. The other accounts I think you could just keep as a backup in case the main lemmy.ml instance goes down.

Truly feels more like a PR stunt than anything…

Ever since Bing introduced their AI stuff I’ve been trialing it + Edge on my main computer. It’s not so bad but sometimes I do need to use Google to actually find what I’m looking for. Currently using Google on everything else though. The AI stuff is actually pretty good but I feel like if Google makes their implementation more widespread most people are just going to use that vs Bing.

Although I’m almost exclusively 100% a lurker I will try my best to make posts and post comments and stuff! Hope more folks from Reddit will join us and help make Lemmy a formidable competitor to Reddit.
