Did you just say Arch Linux?
'Linux is slang for Arch Linux, so I think they did.
Can’t we all just hate Ubuntu in peace?
I thought I was cool leaving windows for Ubuntu. Y’all crushed me.
Hey, if want to try it, feel free to do it. Even Ubuntu is better than Windows.
I was also considering Ubuntu until I learned why I shouldn’t.
You be you.
btw I don’t like arch.
You forgot Star Trek
You forgot bitching about Chrome
Tbh you can even discuss most of that, if you disagree you’ll just be torn to shreds.
To shreds you say‽
And his wife?
… to shreds you say?
Fuck Linux!
Communism? Not really. More like obnoxious campism which has absolutely zero to do with communism, but which becomes a communism purity test anyway. Because nothing says left unity like relitigating the cold war in perpetuity.
More like chardonnay socialists.
I’m pretty sure it’s thedonald refugees from Reddit, they’re posting about shidding fardding, and posting how scary they are, while banning anyone who says boo to them. I can see why iron fist Bolshevik fascism appeals to these cunts.
Occasionally a video game… maybe
I like when halo punches the bad guys
I like that Zelda guy with the sword.
With only one non-downvotable opinion
Wait’ll you see how the rest of the internet is
Meh. I’ve seen some decent discussions here on Lemmy, just not in c/memes.
Okay, and admittedly more than half of those discussions were about Linux.
Well, I mean… The L in Lemmy does stand for Linux.
Linux! Everybody Make More You-sers.
Edit: replaced animated gif with a static one bc it just wouldn’t stop!!!:-P
All memes are shitposts.
Facts.
Whoa there, calm down. Mom can only pay attention to one kid in the pool at a time.
Well, in my honest opinion as a commenter, I’d just like to say that I love discussions. What I tend to not enjoy is replying to the 1500 different people who replied to my post with valid takes, requiring me to read, understand and reply appropriately to all of them.
I am lazy, ok?!
“The problem is that no one’s contributing!”
-creates a community, trying to contribute-
-fails spectacularly with no engagement from anyone at all-
Well, that was encouraging👍👍👍👍👍
Crosspost alot while inviting to the community in post body, link in profile, etc.
Of course, Lemmy isn’t big enough to have active niche communities yet unfortunately.
looks like OP hasn’t been to the world news community.
Since federation is broken a lot of instances I follow don’t have new posts. So no discussions for me.
The active sort should help a little with this, but ya its definitely a problem. Besides just blocking meme-specific communities, can anyone think of ways we could make discussions more prominent for people who’d rather use lemmy for that?
In some niche communities, its discussions stay valid like /c/radiology
Hello,
and
are all open to the public.
There’s big robots, little robots, cursed robots, real life robots, and antiquated ships that aren’t robots but are made of metal!
This isn’t wrong, but shitposts bring people who meme which brings people who discuss. Have to get a strong user base before strong discussions really kick off.
I’ve been noticing that the number of discussions on the internet have been going down lately. Although maybe it’s just me using social media less? lol
Internet discourse is increasingly devolved into “agree with me or you deserve death”
A lot of people just want a constant dopamine hit, one after another, I love meme and shitposts, but reading a discussion about something interesting is definitely the best way to enjoy a cold evening in your blanket
I commented a lot on reddit. Since switching over, there doesn’t seem to be as much activity for me to bounce off from. I still chip in, but it’s definitely not at the same level
I interact with it less and less each month. It’s become a toxic hellhole that usually leaves me wondering why I still bother to try - even in the niche subs.
Lmao, the number of comments on this post is ironic. I’ve had some pretty fun conversations on lemmy.
