Bad for her because I will keep talking about it though.

Mine just thinks it’s a continuation of the same thing they haven’t really been listening to for the past 30 years.

My partner is also a lemming! Problem solved :)

She only followed movies/TV shows and skincare communities on Reddit, until they pick up here I will have another talk about Fediverse with here (or maybe before that).

I keep trying to get my husband to stop checking Reddit and sign up for an alternative and in the meantime I'm sending as many awesome posts from them as I can 😂

[–] kratoz29@lemmy.fmhy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

I know he will reconsider sometime.

My husband finally joined reddit after me talking about it to him for years. Then like a week later i informed him that reddit sucks now and there's this new thing he should check out...

Bad timing my friend.

I'm the one that was annoyed 😂 but he didn't have a Reddit addiction like me so I'm the one that's here now instead of him

I just brought Lemmy up at the BBQ I went to last night. One person was interested! The rest looked at me like I had three heads though...

Most of my mates don't even understand Reddit, I'm not going to waste my energy trying to explain Lemmy / the fediverse to them.

A friend of mine think is a cult and I'm a voicer... She is cool with that though.

My other has been out of town, and wait until she sees what replaced the reddit doomscroll.

[–] kratoz29@lemmy.fmhy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

I feel bad for her (not in the slightest).

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 4 points 1 year ago

Like with myself, she's learned to ignore unrecognized input as long as it sounds generally positive.

[–] evil_opossum@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Yup, this is me. She will probably eventually migrate over once the things she's following are on here as well. It'll be a matter of time I'm sure.

Yeah the interest my wife and friends have shown in lemmy when I bring it up is zero lol oh well.

[–] jovyan@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Waiting for native apps to arrive and then I would recommend joining

[–] kratoz29@lemmy.fmhy.ml 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Native apps? We already have many good ones.

Oh yeah, RIP for now.
