Threadiverse is by far the best name for it.

It’s great that Piefed is adding them, but as long as Lemmy is the largest bulk of users it won’t really be all that impactful. Flairs lose their utility (or fun, depending on the type and context) when only like 1% of the users can see them.

I do miss user flairs. I hope Lemmy adds then too eventually.

The right-wing billionaire’s platform has recently lost about 10 percent of its European user base.

It’s a good start but we gotta pump those numbers up.

I really like your solution!

Used to use Sync and I still prefer it in a lot of ways, but I can see the writing on the wall what with ljdawson not having reared his head for well over a year. That app will stop working when Lemmy 1.0 rolls out.

Switched over to Summit and I’m slowly getting used to it. Still missing some features and options and having some bugs, but overall it’s good and I think it will grow into being the best app for me in the future.

Same here. Do you think this data is from Email Apps/Clients rather than the addresses? iPhones are extremely popular and so I can imagine loads of people open their mail on their phones. But I have a hard time seeing more users being on Apple mail adresses compared to the huge widespread gmail.com users.

My meagre contributions pale in comparison to your efforts, but I do what I can.

I comment a shit ton and often with absolute banalities. Especially on posts with 0 comments.

My reasoning is twofold: first of all I want to encourage posters by engaging with their content so they don’t stop posting. Second I want to invite others to comment and it’s much more inviting to do so if a post has at least one comment. People tend to think it’s dead otherwise and not bother.

I think at the current level of MAUs there is no comment too small, and every little bit helps just by virtue of breaking the silence.

Local feed is one of the best parts of Lemmy conceptually and a very clear indicator that the intended behaviour for users is to sign up to smaller insurances related to their location or otherwise significant individual interests.

I believe someone found an account she did livestreams on somewhere, and the pictures are most likely screen grabs from those. The odds of the person in the pictures being behind the spam are pretty much nil.

People aren’t going to search up a general protocol though, if nothing specific was mentioned they’re going to assume nothing exists that was worth mentioning.

Shame only Mastodon was mentioned by name out of the Fediverse alternatives.

I recognise the name Beyorkisan. Is that from the Nicole spam Matrix?

Peertube, Loops and Mastodon all need something like that way more than Lemmy.

It’s better than you’d think (which admittedly doesn’t say much).

I imagine all the pineapple on pizza outrage would swiftly quiet down if people learned that the swedes put banana and curry on their pizzas.

Don’t worry, at least 2005 was only ten years ago.

…wait.

If this is the best thing you can do, then the second best thing is be active. We’re still content starved around here. If you think of something to post, post it. If you can’t post, try to comment. Especially on any post that has no comments. Doesn’t matter how banal your comment is. Nothing scares away potential new users more than seeing post after post with 0 comments in their feed, and nothing disheartens posters more than that “0 comments” under their post.

People are generally scared or reluctant to do things when nobody else is doing them. They don’t want to post in communities that don’t already have recent posts. They don’t want to comment on posts that have 0 comments. So whenever you can break that silence and be that first post or comment, try to do so.

60 years ago? Buddy, I have some bad news for you…
