In this case, I have a theory. I remember a month ago people were posting a lot on Reddit and the !reddit@lemmy.ml community was extremely active. It was like group therapy for refugees. But now the new reality is setting in and people are actually having real and meaningful conversations, which means more lurkers.

So it doesn’t mean that active users are down per se, it’s just that it’s stabilised because people are mostly over Reddit.

As somehow who lost a close one to cancer, quit now and not later. The more you wait, the greater the chances you’ll get cancer. Don’t wait and regret it.

I’m curious, why are you sick of Manjaro? I’ve been use it for 2 years and it’s been smooth sailing. Genuinely just curious.

Worse. Paradoxically, it encourages piracy.

This meme is sad. We are at a state where software truly are not yours.

So much this. The leader on top is the one who instills the corporate culture. In this case, the engineers have no say in the matter. They need to do what they’re told.

Wow. Welcome fellow old ex-Redditor. You will like it here. You’ll see that it feels like like the Reddit of old.

Unfortunately, Discord can’t be replaced right now. All my gaming friends are using it and I don’t see any FOSS software that can replace it right now.

I think a static page page explaining to users that the server is being upgraded would be best.

If I remember correctly, Reddit’s app was first on the IOS App Store before the whole API debacle. So we can assume that a significant percentage of users are using the official app and being brainwashed by Reddit’s ads to keep the shareholders happy.

They wanted to bring the rest of users into the fold. It’s good to see that so many didn’t and came here instead.

When Lemmin.world upgrades to 0.18.1, it will fix the problem.

Just a regular Sennheiser HD 569. I don’t like gaming headphones.

I remember Reddit in its early days (it was founded in 2005). The conversations were intelligent and I participated in a lot of them. When they introduced karma, I noticed that people were using it as a badge of honor. People started posting shitty one-liners to get upvotes, but those posts had no meaning.

So I started posting less and less. Lemmy/Kbin reminds me of the early days of Reddit, and I hope it stays that way.

No. I want this community to be focused on games discussions. Memes can be posted on c/GamesMemes.

I really hope that Lemmy will never have it. Karma destroyed Reddit.

Perhaps. Or they are biding their time until the blackout then will actively be looking for an alternative.

I used to play EA Games on Windows and I always had problems with EA’s shitty launcher.

"Sigh*. I’ve been using Manjaro for two years now and I haven’t had problems. Everything always worked smoothly.

Why do we have to go to the extreme. The scandanavian countries are socialist/capitalist countries and they have one of the best living conditions.
