Lol, definitely not early enough. I was thinking about making it a week ago, but I'm planning on moving up near Denver and didn't want to mod and not live here anymore. Jumped ship from reddit to here when I saw the first post from the Apollo dev about the phone calls and stuff.

[–] scottywh 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Fair enough... :)

[–] canthidium 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Glad someone made it though. I've peeked back into reddit a few times and it's a completely different world over there. I'm loving Lemmy so far. Feels so much more engaging.

Yeah I really like the federated nature of things, it's got me really exploring other communities on other servers, plus KBIN magazines, Mastadon stuff, Peertube, etc...

[–] canthidium 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I've looked at kbin and subscribed to a few communities but that's it. Mostly keeping lemmy.world my home. Is peertube just like a federated youtube?

[–] rich8n 3 points 2 years ago

Yes it is. And it federates with Lemmy.

[–] scottywh 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I agree 100 percent... It starting to feel freeing getting away from the toxicity that it's become over there.

[–] canthidium 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

the toxicity that it’s become over there.

Man, I didn't realize how bad it got until after leaving. I mean, I rarely posted because people just want to argue about everything and someone will always take your post in bad faith but looking now after being here it's soooo toxic. I really hope Lemmy can stave off a lot of that madness.

[–] scottywh 2 points 2 years ago

Arguments? Nah... Who would do that?

Hey buddy! Good to see you here!

[–] scottywh 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Back at ya friend!

Did you maybe start to get a suspicion about my alt account on the other site earlier?

Lol 😂

Ever have one of those instant click moments? Like the scene in a movie that the bad guy reveals their plan and it’s been in front of you the whole time? That’s what happened lol.
