I just bought a drone, hopefully it arrives by this weekend and I’ll start posting some pictures
Edit: it did not
bit of an over reaction wouldn’t you say
Sorry for spamming two posts in a row, I just needed to get that out of my system
Na na not a problem mate, there’s original content and they’re both different. Keep it going. Add a third and it’d still be fine
Said the cancer. /s
650+ posts and 1700+ comments (from this account). Its one of 7. 😭
I don’t think I even spend that much time on my actual job
Nor have I
A real Lemmian Hero!
Just doing my part
I’d give you gold, but all I’ve got is lead and a particle accelerator. Good luck!
“I’m in this picture and I don’t like it”
…Obama? GUYS!!! OBAMA HAS A LEMMY ACCOUNT AND I FOUND IT!!!
Or maybe I found Obamas clone…wait, how much of sci-fi is real now? I mean, I know we got the star trek communicators, and space travel…I know we did SOME cloning. We cloned a sheep. Have we cloned a president yet? Hopefully not reagan…or bush…or trump.
God it feels weird knowing that trump was actually president. That is a real thing that happened for 1 full term. And the weirder thing is, it’s scarily close to happening again in a week!!!
Ok…I guess the actual status of it wouldn’t be official until January, but you know what I mean!
username checks out
I can’t! I steal my stuff from here!
i posted once!
Jesus man I remember your username, either you comment a lot or post from a different account? What is it?
1k comments in 2 months. Something near 16 comments a day. Pretty active by most counts so yeah you might’ve seen him lol
Yep. Also seen you. I love recognising names on here.
look ma, no life!
btw you should refer to people on the internet as “them”
The math checks out.
I posted twice, automod got one of them, but the other was gloriously empowering. Can recommend 8/10 Edit: I’m definitely a lurker though. We have value and votes, and are important to the ecosystem!
I made one post and feel like I’ve earned my retirement.
Ok, I made it on a prior account but I inherited the retirement dammit!
Akshually, we’re called lurkers.
Since you already complained about the wrong vocabulary, I can continue with my lurking ways.
What annoys me about Reddit-like communities (yes including Lemmy) is that there’s this downvote feature.
The whole idea of these discussion boards is to have… discussions. Well, perhaps not so much this particular sub lol. So it’s annoying when you make a post or reply to someone with a constructive reply or argument, and then people can’t be arsed to actually reply, they just downvote to disagree and move on. It’s like the equivalent of people just going like “lol no” and then walk away.
Frankly it’s a feature that feels like it completely contradicts the point of online forums.
There are instances who don’t have 'em and even frontends that allow you to hide it.
That’s one reason I picked blahaj for my instance- no downvoting
I agree.
But also downvoting is very useful as community moderation tool. I participate in some communities with regular, scummy spam posts that are technically off topic and not quite bannable. They’d get naive, hype driven upvotes if left alone. And I like that there’s a community mechanism to bury them.
Yeah I don’t think it’s entirely useless, it’s mostly useful for filtering out spam posts and unrelated stuff from communities.
Just on a comment/discussion level it feels like it’s not that great.
There is an API you can use with
pythorheador other libraries to schedule posts very easily. @[email protected] uses it to automate loads of posts from his pic collections in local storage, and will gladly provide you with source code and assistance.There is also schedule.lemmings.world where you can schedule all kinds of stuff with your account, using a nice UI.
Holy shit thank you. I hacked together a script with a crinjob months ago. This is so much more elegant.
That’s so cool! Thank you for sharing!
I can only post when I’m feeling strong, because I’m terrified of y’all disapproving. :(
Nah as long as they Upvote content and don’t complain about content being posted they can stay lurkers.
(If they do complain they can be the change they want to see and post, that’s what I did)
Can’t. I get way too invested in this shit and its bad for my mental health.
i love posting in dead communities and getting downvotes.
Yeah THAT blows my mind a bit? I posted to an empty community and it got deleted. What the fuck? It wasn’t offensive and it was on topic. It was a niche community too.
Whenever I have something to say, someone has already said it. People are always on the ball here.
