Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­


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.

Siguro instead of feeling bitterness towards those who choose to go back to Reddit, we can instead help each other build this community up to be its own thing with its own culture and inside jokes.

Tiwala lang, magkakaroon din tayo ng poop knife stories dito soon. 😌✨

Si Clintoy lang naman bitter sa mga bumalik ahahaha

But in all seriousness β€” while some users can be annoying β€” kay Spez + yung mga alipores nya pa din nakafocus inis ko. That's also why I'm still in self-imposed Reddit exile. Well, bukod sa pagbaklas ng r/thevisoria.

Rome was not built in a day and all that hoopla.

Also if we stay mad at the users, we're just playing into the hands of corporate: to make it a mods vs users or users vs users thing when the real enemy is Steve and is greed.

True. Sobrang misdirected talaga nung aggression nung iba sa mga bumalik sa subreddits nung nag-reopen.

I want Lemmy to thrive para naman hindi lang sa Reddit napupunta yung information but the transfer won't happen in a snap. They can't expect people to acclimate here agad. It's like forcing redditors to be comfortable in a bare house.
