Hehe, I figured I'd grab it on Lemmy.world before someone nefarious did. I'm happy to share the load though.

If it gets to the point you need an additional mod I'd be up for it I reckon...

The tools don't really seem to be there to make it easy yet but I assume that will come with time.

Seems to be pretty slow here these days though so you've probably got it under control at the moment eh?

Right on... I'll do what I can to help out. :)

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.

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.

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?

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

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.
