A geologist and archaeologist by training, a nerd by inclination - books, films, fossils, comics, rocks, games, folklore, and, generally, the rum and uncanny… Let’s have it!

That’s really good news - we need more topic specific instances.
I’ve declined the opportunity to Mod a community on lemmy.ml, which is really not like me.
Give Mods and Admins the ability to move posts to another community.
Help promote longer discussions by using the sidebar to display comments initially sorted by “New”. Give options to filter comments by Community, Local, Subscribed, Mod View or All.
There is already Lemmy NSFW which, I am led to understand, has more boobies than you can shake a stick at.
Curiouser and curiouser.
Probably some mundane explanation but still…
As a community grows in popularity, it often shifts from hosting insightful discussions to attracting memes, funny, and low-quality content.
Seems the simplest thing would be to start a parallel memes community. So, for example, if it was an issue on !movies@lemm.ee we’d look into a movie memes community and those that don’t want memes can just block it.
Interestingly there seems to have been an uptick in comments.
You’re a saint, SatansMaggotyCumFart.
Pathetic, I know.
Gotta ask why it seems to slowly decline after each influx, tho, rather than slowly rise or stay stable.
Because there is a big influx of people looking for a new home and some of them don’t feel this is it and move on.
What is Interesting about the graph is that the drop-off after Rexxit was much steeper and, despite the drops, the numbers don’t go below the level they were before.
Lemmy seems to have that spirit of the Internet of the 90s, which I thought was long gone.
That’s what I like about the Fediverse too. After Big Tech started hoovering up eyeballs, I got disenchanted but this has put fire back in my belly.
Fucking Belgium is probably paying some troll to post on Lemmy.
I’m open to offers from the Belgian secret services.
Yeah, I’m suspicious of people with high post counts too.
They have !lemmybb@lemmy.ml
Lemmy is just a forum set to sort by new posts, not new comments.
Perhaps find like-minded folks and start one?
