It's all good I'm still mostly getting 1 upvote, similar to reddit

He was moved by the speech Obama gave for him.

[–] BrewJajaja@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

Oh wow, of course, duh. It was so obviously obvious.

It's seems that my audience was also mostly just one person... That person is dedicated though.

[–] Thedogspaw@midwest.social 6 points 1 year ago

My audience is one person to me I'm dedicated to being my biggest fan though

My account here is 4 years old. I was so excited to learn about Lemmy back then, but the user base was painfully low. I'm getting that same excitement I had back then.

Please new people, make this your permanent home and forget Reddit!

I'm grateful to see open source softwares blow up online

[–] sagittarie@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

Yes, I'm very proud of the Reddit community for several times over the years mass-recommending open source and federated options.

What do you mean? Lemmy started last week right? /s

[–] BlinkerFluid@lemmy.ml 31 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Lemmy! THE HOT NEW REDDIT SENSATION CREEPING THE NATION!

REDDIT WHO!?

EXACTLY!

LEMMY'S GOT TECHIES, IT'S GOT TREKKIES, IT'S GOT MASTODON INTEGRATION AND ISN'T OWNED BY A CORPORATE ENTITY, OR ANY GOVERNMENT! RADICAL!

[–] super_user_do@feddit.it 15 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I feel nostalgic in advance for having stumbled on an inside joke that I was almost around early enough to be on the inside of but can nevertheless clearly project myself there.

[–] randromeda@lemmy.ml 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My first comment was the most upvoted comment on a subreddit. I got 19 upvoted.

[–] mrmanager@lemmy.today 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

People are just much more supportive and friendlier here. But I guess because we are in a state now before all the assholes join from reddit...

"I'm doing my part!" is probably the most used meme on Lemmy

I joined a year ago and it's crazy, i remember getting excited over 20 upvotes, that AMA and the whole 3rd party fiasco really brought a lot of people here!

[–] gun@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I remember before federation was an implemented feature and there were like 5 instances that couldn't talk with each other. I feel old now.

[–] TauZero@mander.xyz 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I remember reddit before even subs when it was just a single page for tech news :(

I still can’t get my iOS app to let me comment

[–] 21trillionsats@infosec.pub 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh shit it actually worked, upvotes for all. Sorry for shitting on you mLem!

[–] BrewJajaja@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Wait is there a specific Lemmy person? Because I initially though that this site was some Motorhead fan page that evolved into a reddit alternative lol lol. Im so old.

[–] hschen@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 year ago

Nah its named after Lemmy, but not a fan page haha

[–] fernandu00@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Where do you track your upvotes? O use jerboa BTW

[–] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

There's no karma total, lemmy only tracks you individual post/comment vote counts. Break free of the shackles of Karma Addiction!

[–] SubArcticTundra 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Top right of comment next to comment age. Besides that, Lemmy does not calculate total karma

[–] mobiuscoffee@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I rather like how total karma isn't tracked. I wonder how other people feel though?

[–] ndr@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It is a good thing, objectively. But at least on Mlem there is kind of an equivalent of the karma in the profile page (comment score and post score), if you miss that. 😎

Some may interact less though if there is no karma; gamification works after all. I guess we’ll see.

It's perfect and I wish Reddit did it ages ago. It's the same as Forums with account levels, it makes you think someone has more input than they actually do, and it opens up the system to people selling accounts or botting accounts to later sell (which is a rampant problem on reddit and there's now anti-bot bots).
