Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️
An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭
Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

While I would love to have more people in here, I personally feel like it might be more important to establish and reinforce what kind of culture we want to foster here; now that we have a newer canvass. There are some aspects of reddit culture that has come to annoy me and it's grating how I'm seeing more of the same on some parts of Lemmy. I can't quite put it into words, but r/ph felt exhausting these past years.
I think there's already a budding culture here, born out of our weariness of what Reddit (and r/ph specifically) has become. However, since everyone of us has a slightly different idea what that culture is, it's a good idea to codify it.
If I must put it into words, I think it's like a combination of r/casualph and r/ph, perhaps with a heavier bias towards r/casualph from what I've observed. However, please take my words with a huge fistful of salt as I've never been a regular in r/casualph and have only been a lurker in r/ph.
