Asklemmy

engage with content I like, try to produce some posts on communities that are dear to my heart, showing my critical gf the cute animal pictures and derpy jokes I find here.

So far it’s just commenting and upvoting. The mobile interface isn’t the best tbh, but I’m hoping to dive into everything on desktop when I have time this weekend.

I read the stuff people post.

I've been making at least 20 comments/day. It ain't much but it's honest work.

I was closer to 20 comments per year back on reddit

• Forked and fixed PDS so users can mass-edit comments and clean up / remove content from Reddit, while leaving a sign of the issue
• Wiped my own accounts clean, editing all comments, deleted accounts
• Have not gone back to reddit (won't go back)
• Started a community I didn't see here (trying to start another but bugs)

I am actually writing a better Android/iOS/Web client for lemmy :) not sure when it's gonna be ready though as I am already busy enough but keep an eye for an announcement maybe in the next month or so :) the idea is that its heavily inspired on the Infinity client for reddit.

I switched to the Fediverse a few days before the reddit blackout and haven't gone back yet. I'm actually finding myself wanting to participate in voting and commenting in the smaller communities here vs. getting completely lost in the mix on reddit.

Made various posts to help communities I'm interested in get off the ground, advertised my fave ones on other social media, helped a lot of people out during the influx earlier in the week so hopefully a few less of them bounce off Lemmy due to confusion. Haven't started any communities because I prefer to try and help build existing ones.

(I did briefly consider making a craft-focused instance but had a look at the docs and the tech requirements and noped out lol)

I go back a couple times a day to lead those that won't convert to ad-free modded versions of the official app so reddit can't make any money off Android users by cramming ads down their throats.

Also been trying to lead more people to kbin.

Made a small community combining some hobbies/passions of mine that I'd like to see on kbin instead of reddit.

I've made some of the first posts in a few communities. I hope they end up taking off.

Created a community and I'm trying to comment and upvote the most possible. Unfortunately, most people don't do anything.

Been commenting and trying to post a little. I did make my own community within the instance that I joined. May make a second one soon.

I've made more posts than usual (I usually only comment, not post).

I've also posted a bunch of issues to the kbin issue tracker and investigated the code for a few. Maybe at some point I'll actually contribute some changes, but admittedly setting up a dev env is a pain in the ass and I do enough dev for work that I don't usually have energy for more.

As I get more and more into the idea of just staying here (I really was hoping Reddit would have just pulled its head out of its ass), I may also recreate some communities that aren't yet here. Last I checked, my city didn't have one here.

I post news I find interesting or neato

i'v been taking part in discussions all day, learning what i need to learn to be able to help, then getting ready to do specifically that.

i'v also been cluing some of the more confused reddit mods in to where this place is and figuring out how not to get shadowbanned in the process - make a reference to motorhead instead of naming lemmy himself. hopefully we'll get the earthquakes mod here soon

I try to interact as much as possible

I've been commenting, upvoting and posting. Though for some reason I haven't been able to post anything since yesterday - It gives me an error code no matter how many times I try, does anyone know anything about this? I want to post more cat pics darn it!!
