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.

Lagpas dalawang linggo na pala ang community na ito dito.

I've been checking Lemmy almost ever since the weekend just before the blackouts, replacing Reddit as my addiction (of sorts). I've also managed to subscribe to a good number of communities, such that my feed is now quite healthy with content. I almost never get the urge to browse Reddit anymore, not even with all the mention of it in my feed.

How about you guys? Kamusta naman ang Lemmy experience ninyo thus far?

[–] decadentrebel 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Ever since the blackout, I barely go back. The only times that I do is 1) to look for AskReddit material for the RD thread, 2) when someone links to juicy content, 3) close down r/thevisoria, and 4) peek at r/PH's frontpage occasionally, particularly nung polling.

But I stopped posting and likely never will again. Wala rin ako itch to do so.

Edit: Ayan napasilip tuloy ako doon and found out that Couples For Christ have been gone for a while now, there's a courier called HBK, and questions about phone brand and opening an OnlyFans account.

opening an OnlyFans account

Uhm.... 👀

You know what, after reading some of the replies here, I'm starting to think of this place as some kind of a safe zone, a lounge where people can just relax and take a break from all of the havoc happening elsewhere online.

Thank you for the effort maglagay ng content dito para maengage ang members.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago (15 children)

It's been slow for lemmy communities to form. Partly na rin siguro madami parin fence sitters sa reddit debacle up until July I suppose. Kaunti palang nasasalihan kong communities tho.

Pansin ko lang, nag nose dive na moderation sa rph. I don't know if it's just me but the posts are all over.

I still go to reddit for some of my interests that aren't here yet, but for news, I use Lemmy na.

[–] megane_kun 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ayun lang. Ayaw kong tignan yung mga subreddits for my interests na ala dito. Natatakot akong maging marupok at magbalik-loob kay Poong $₱€Ƶ eh. HAHAHA!

[–] cottonmon 6 points 2 years ago (5 children)

But i need my news about wrestliiiiing hahaha. Seriously though, I'm trying to limit my usage na. Siguro pag nagupgrade na ang Lemmy World to .18 mas magagamit ko since wala na dapat yung autopopulation ng bagong posts sa All.

onga buti dumami na users kaya dami na rin posts+comments, sana dumami pa sa July 1

[–] megane_kun 7 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Sana nga rin. At sana yung mga matitino ang dumagsa dito. Lol!

[–] cottonmon 6 points 2 years ago (6 children)

Haha! Seriously hoping hindi pumunta dito ang feeling mod at yung mra na apparently conspiracy theorist din.

Ok this is just hilarious. It's funny how some subreddits are being clever with their protests. r/dndmemes is just straight up goblin rule 34 now.

Nakakatamad pag Sunday, bukas May gagawin ulit.

[–] decadentrebel 8 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Ang anti-climactic nung nangyari kay Prigozhin/Wagner. Parang si Crabfeeder lang, haha.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

Fuckin crabfeeder. Tagal ng hype pero walang ka kwenta kwenta nung nasa screen na.

Patumal ng patumal yung rd natin :(

Like I said awhile ago, the community was just an echo chamber. Para sa mga Pinoy, walang resemblance ang Reddit API changes and most of them galing rin sa Facebook na baguhan lang sa Reddit.

[–] Henry 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

yep what the hive mind decide is what the hive mind will follow since nag vote ang hive ng back to normal

[–] PancitCantot 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

But I'm glad I found this fediverse. It is interesting concept we first-handed experience. The current Lemmy helped me minimize doomscrolling on the Internet.

Well, it's not that there's a whole lot of us here, especially after the otherside has reopened. Also, mukhang tayong mga natira dito ay di rin naman ganun ka-daldal.

However, relatively speaking madada tayo compared to the other country subreddits here.

Alam ko na breakfast sa umaga, toasted pandesal. Nakita ko kase sa box namin madami pang liver spread, nagpapalaman din kami ng egg, cheese or chiz whiz minsan. Kayo ano favorite palaman nyo sa pandesal sa umaga?
