It really feels like Lemmy is alive because of you.
When I first checked out Lemmy, I wasn’t expecting there to be so much content, so much discussion, and so much community. But I’ve spent the better part of two days glued to my screen, browsing content all day. I’ve seen so many posts, so many interesting discussions about the fediverse, and of course, plenty of memes. It really feels like the start of something incredible.
I’ve gotta get back to work soon, but wow. I think this whole fediverse thing really is the next step for social media. If I find some extra time, I’ll definitely consider contributing to Lemmy’s source code to help this project and the FOSS ecosystem grow.
I was there for the great Digg to Reddit migration and now the great Reddit to Lemmy migration.
They can destroy our aggregators but they’ll never be able to destroy our community. 🤌
Lemmy could be the solution we needed all along. No company can take it away - if the community remains the platform does too.
I mean, nothing is forever.
As cheesy as that sounds, it’s especially true in tech.
Someone can/will come along and fuck up Lemmy too eventually, probably.
Gonna take like 15 years though so for now, it is the place to be.
