Fuck this is really good.
"Lemmy show you something cool."
we finally have something instead of:
"I read it [on the internet]"
"I reddit"
Lemmy showed me
Lemmy see it.
lmao gotem
Aah yes, signal and lemmy 💯
Matrix would’ve been better imho
If only I could get my contacts to join me.... I have two (real-life) friends in XMPP and none in Matrix 😅 I count my blessings and am thankful to have a few contacts that use Signal. I make sure to compensate them for their service with memes borrowed from Lemmy.
ejabberd recently announced full matrix federation at the server level, so there’s hope
Decent SEO, hope we top out someday
alt-text: DuckDuckGo results for Lemmy, showing A British rock musician taking the top info card and top result while join–lemmy.org is #2
To top out Lemmy would be a bad move. In this case we could consider a #2 being equal to being #1. Nothing's greater than Lemmy, a British rock musician.
But if you pop over to Reddit it's a lot of similar memes.
Signal and Lemmy, gotta be my two favorite genders
Any good Signal groups?
not sure. I just use it to chat with friends, family and such, not so much for new connections
This is one reason I’m not a fan of the block feature (and I suppose even have slight concerns about instances blocking other instances). “Recommendation transparency”(?).
Would be neat to say “here, I curated this feed for you” and link somebody to the instance you use with a block list embedded. If we get used to browsing without seeing furry goblin porn, friends might be surprised when we recommend a site that has so much of it.
My hope is that if enough people block an instance, it'll just die out over time from not enough interaction.
Should've said "the Internet", as most memes get cross-posted across various sites/apps.
“Yeah I could’ve guessed that”
What kind of books do you like to read?
Oh, the kind with words in them.
Pop up
Not even close to the same thing. Books generally don't copy other bodies of work like the way memes spread across multiple sites. I can't read The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and expect to find a Tyrion chapter from A Clash of Kings.
What kind of books do you like to read?
Oh, the kind I find at the library.
Good point so hope that’s better.
Bigger point is credit where credit is due! Maybe Lemmy’s curation is superior, allowing OP to see more memes of higher quality in the time they allocate for lulz. In that case they should definitely shout out the fediverse. There are dozens of us and we can use more!
The question was "where do u get the memes?", not "where do they come from?"
So yeah, we need some more reading comprehesion there bro
Be sure to include a URL next time
This implies that you see memes on lemmy, that are not bad (or just few in number). What communities are you following?
