I’ve been on lemmy for over a year now, and I just realized I used to read all those HackerNews articles + their comments, I haven’t done that in probably 6 months because the discussion here has gotten much better. What’s changed for you with Lemmy over the last year?

    Lol I didn’t even know this community existed. To be fair their description even states that moderation is heavy handed.

    Edit: Pretty sure that’s a troll community or something? Every single post there is kinda crap and is being downvoted.

      It’s run by and for an absolute crank.

      That guy is Poe’s law, embodied. Absolutely everyone thinks it’s a joke… at first.

      I’ve seen it from time to time, and after the initial “…Why…?” it had me wondering if it was trying to be some sort of Lemmy counterculture. Parody makes more sense, but if it’s sincere I just sort of feel bad.

      Yeah, unfortunately it is, ended up blocking it now because if I can’t comment with my own experience with Linux when I relate to a meme. (even if the “meme” is followed by half-truths) Then its just a guy ranting about how Linux sucks and power tripping when someone comments.
