I am aware that the use of such source is frowned upon. Nonetheless, the elonjettracker dude got busted from X© and now has his own sub. Interesting content to say the least, and it does help put things into perspective. Also i hope Lemmy implements flairs as a feature, this post could thus use a discussion flair, to signal that such content is up for debate.

      Very nice

      Personally I started posting one music track a day but eventually stopped cause the funny little number was so random sometimes and when I asked what people disliked I never once got an answer? So I just…stopped.

        Lemmy has good quality but also not as addictive as other platforms. Also the audience is maybe more mature, techy and less artsy. You should still keep posting though, your posts will be recognized years later in the future. Luckely the internet doesn’t forget.

          Thanks for the headsup, but i have been around the block for a while as they say.

          One of the first things the internet does, is forget, the people that usually arent are the one I want to actually do so.

          I usually dont post for a future that has almost never happened since I have used the internet, so I dont have much incentive to use it as a reason now.

            Shocking reality sometimes. Personally i got disappointed when i tried to look for engagement in the wrong places, sometimes you need to ‘feel’ the people out and see if your interests fit them or not, or you can try to find a middleground between you and them, maybe this sound too ‘incel’ from me but sometimes internet is the best place to find like-minded people, all while keeping real life in mind. As proven above, i keep using an unpopular app among lemmies, but i dont really take the sentiment to heart: i try to pick the jewel from the garbage, and then share it with my favourite people, i get confirmation, then i profit! i even use trash apps like tiktok and Zuccapp but luckely i could hide behind a DNS if i dont want to be tracked, then i freeze those apps when i am done. The internet now is more addictive than ever, i hope no one get caught into it much. So you are handling this as it should ^^
