Help the communities you like to see grow.

Just making one or two posts in communities that seem dead gets the ball rolling in making them alive.

It also motivates others to post.

Wait is Meta’s threads part of the Fediverse?

Checkout https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/fedibridge it’s commited to helping guide people to Lemmy.

I like to use something like

Try out the European-Hosted Reddit alternative called Lemmy, https://phtn.app/

It also has a mobile app: https://vger.app/settings/install

To guide people.

Aaaand it’s gone, and I’ve been banned from the sub.

got 80,000 views and 1300 upvotes before is disappeared though, so I see that as a win, I’m sure a few people signed up.

To be fair, I was spamming should have read the rules better, a warning would have been nice.

I think swearing is good if not overused.

I’ve heard studies show that people who swear are trusted more, something about them coming across more open and genuine.

I was about 12 years old, I woke up Friday morning 6am for school.

After school my friend and I bought WWE 2007 on PlayStation 2.

We stayed up all weekend playing and only went to bed 8pm om Sunday.

So 62 hours.

Yea I like this.

You’ve got to outlive your enemies

Unless we fix the UX problems in Lemmy, a Bluesky-like alternative of reddit is going to pop up, and overtake Lemmy, like what happened with Mastadon

My mother tongue is Afrikaans (a sister language of Dutch) but I’m fluent in English, in a lot of ways my English is better than my Afrikaans because all the media I consume is English and my job has mostly been in English.

I love my mother tongue and I’m more expressive etc in it, it’s also allowed me to land a job that’s in the Netherlands, because I could learn Dutch really quickly thanks to it.

Both languages have been so valuable to me, I hope to one day expose my kids to a few different languages from a young age
