The Reddit ban made me think I'd find the community here... Is there another sub somewhere or...?

We need to make more people aware of this sub

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

DMing people on reddit will make a big difference.

I’ve been messaging people from Reddit that post or comment about censorship. Hit them with our lemmy instance link lemmy.whynotdrs.org

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Flair is the way!

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago

Well for one thing there aren't bots or shills

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago

we're all just chilling

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It will get busier. There are literally dozens of us.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

I just got here! With more to follow!

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

I just got here give it time. No bots here lol

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

We're coming. 🫡

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The suppression over there is working somewhat.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

It is. Though, won't last long.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We're on Discord too. I can send the invite link if you haven't had one already.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But Discord sucks. They demand phone numbers if you try to be private. Typical evil big tech.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Discord is definitely not the long term solution. I don't believe any for profit centralized platform could be.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

First I've heard of it. Thanks for the link.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Let the great migration begin!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Just made it here. Nice to be able to comment. Low karma kept me lurking. Never cared enough to farm for that much karma to meet limits

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Don't think so. However, this community is not on Lemmy.world and is not discoverable in their search tool, which doesn't help.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

These communities are on a separate instance than lemmy.world, but both instances are federated and can interact with each other.

The more users of this instance go and interact on lemmy.world servers (comments will show this home instance name) folks may click and join in.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

And if you signed up on lemmy.world and subscribed to any of the communities here it will show up in their "all" feed over there.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Makes me think how about how many bots and fake apes there really r…..I imagine there’s a ton of baby apes too who have bought some GME in their broker or robinhood/cash app and participate in the Reddit communities more for social interaction than actually being a part of the play on any sort of serious level

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Most of us like myself probably just zen as fk and doesn't bother as much. We know what needs to be done and continue to do so.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I really don't understand lemmy anyway so i'm already surprised there is anyone here. hey guys, what's up

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

It will get bigger. (that's what ... he said?)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think this community will grow, it’ll just take some time and getting used to the layout and format. I’ll admit I’m going through the learning curve right now but Reddit will be so insanely compromised once they go live with their IPO and decentralization is the way - so I’m willing to go through the discomfort now to reap the rewards later.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

This is a big thing that, I think, many miss - including myself.

Lemmy is decentralized - which brings with it a lot of different benefits and drawbacks. Currently, one drawback is a relative dearth of users compared to some other platforms. That will most certainly change, though.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Was very confusing to get on here. I don’t like the name confusion. Drsgme? Whydrs? Whynotdrs?

Stick to one name! Make it easy to spread the word. I don’t trust discord. Feel it’s already compromised. Still not sure of this place yet

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Sorry about the confusion! We were not able to host this instance on the same URL without breaking the federation of the instance.

DRSGME.org is specifically GME focused when providing DRS resources.

The WhyDRS.org project aims to bring the same DRS resources but to all other publicly traded stocks.

The lemmy.whynotdrs.org instance is here to provide a space to discuss them both, along with other stocks and market forces.

You're smart to not trust Discord. It's just another for profit private company like Reddit and so many other social medias.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are you or how are you affiliated with drsgme? And how come they don’t directly link you. I think they link the discord. For now I do trust drsgme…

I won’t waste my time with other drs projects. I think you at risk or are actively diluting the focus to DRS GME.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

This instance is directly affiliated, and linked in the header and footer (desktop) and footer (mobile) on both project sites DRSGME.org and WhyDRS.org.

I'm a member of the team. Appreciate your skepticism, which is always a good trait, and that you find our resources helpful.

I'll be appearing with Miller and Bibic on a twitter space on Wednesday, if you want to hear more from us and about this instance.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

And it’s not like this place has taken off. I’d redo it all without the confusion.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Discord is definitely a piece of spyware at this point. Telegram is a better option at this point in time.

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

I think a lot of users went to discord.

[–] _st0f 2 points 1 year ago

That's a shame, I'm quite liking Lemmy..just need the users now I guess...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was looking for an exit from super stonk since redacted started. Some of us know what to do but not how to get there.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Spread the word when possible but be careful. I got perma banned from there simply for putting our lemmy url in a comment
