It has been a year since we migrated from reddit. What are your favourite communities?

He was the greatest hacker of all time

[–] tpihkal@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

For some reason I thought I that was Kevin Mitnick.

[–] thesmokingman@programming.dev 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

That’s just Mitnick’s over-inflated ego and constant media presence. The punishment he received was not commensurate to his crimes, giving him reasonable support. Everything else is just his hype game.

Sure gonna miss him showing up in our annual security remittance training...

Sorry officer, all I have in my wallet are memes.

Not my favorite community but I wish !writingprompts@lemmy.world had more engagement. It was really cool on Reddit and I wish it got more love here as well. ~~I'd participate too but I can't write for shit.~~

Also !frogpics@lemmy.world

Cute little slimy fellas

I tried to be active on writing prompts back in the other place, years ago.

So many of these things are written in first person that it's grating to the eyes.

Literature Cafe also looks like it has a community for that if we want to spread things out from world a bit. (Which I think we should at some point.)

Am I free to go? I'd like a lawyer.

[–] Wogi@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

No. To both things. POST OR REMAIN

Thanks for the shout-out! I love the community that's come together there

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 5 points 5 months ago

Yeah, they really stick together!

[–] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

I tried to get this to turn into a Stormlight Archive fan community.

It responded, “I am a stick.”

196 but i dont do my part :(

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 months ago

Well, if you ever snicker while looking at a post in a meeting or see a meme and think "true." you're doing a part.

[–] bquintb@midwest.social 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Am I being detained?

[–] GuitarAbuser@sopuli.xyz 3 points 5 months ago (2 children)

My favourite one is the one where you write your English the way it's really spoken ie. What sounds come out of your mouth !JuropijanSpeling@sopuli.xyz

[–] K4mpfie@feddit.de 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

So confused as a german speaker xD Those Ös and Äs just don't make sense this way 😂

[–] GuitarAbuser@sopuli.xyz 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

Well then, it would be great to see a post by a German speaker there! Do it your way!

[–] K4mpfie@feddit.de 3 points 5 months ago

I think you'd be surprised how close it would actually be, seeing how German spelling is almost spot on to the written word. Like here for example. I took the liberty to steal your post

Bii tö tseints juu vant to sii in tis völd." Du juu häv ä feivörit kvout?

"Be the change you want to see in this world" Do you have a favorite quote?

Good job on "quote" that's creative spelling. In "Vörld" the o in this case is actually an ö when looking at it with a German pronunciation. Now, this is my attempt at that sentence:

"Bie dä tschänsch ju want to sie in dis wörld" Du ju hef ä fevorit quote?

I have not seen this kind of language, so I assume it's a new trend for English speaker. In the DACH region, writing like you speak your accent is a pretty common thing outside the major towns. I'll leave you with a pretty complex example where the writer tried to show the pronunciation by using different circumflex to show how different letters are pronounced. https://pasteboard.co/rMJcvSHAFx6g.jpg It's pretty extreme, but if you are fluent in any German alpine dialect you will have little problem reading it.

Don't really follow any big communities here (except for this one), just smaller ones specific to my personal interests.

Maybe lemmy.world/c/dadjokes
