  1. Is this the biggest SA lemmy community out there?

  2. Unlike reddit can we please drop the pretense that south africa is perfect and staying is correct and also not have spam of everyone saying they cant wait to leave. I don't care either way I just hated how every single post's discussions ended up being those two conflicting points.

  3. Nandos? Thoughts?

  1. Is there a ZA lemmy server? I use mastodon.africa, I was hoping there might be a Lemmy one too.
  2. No argument from me.
  3. Nando's sucks.

There is one lemmy server in ZA, but its not open to the public.

Here is a map view of servers world wide: https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/map

Thanks! Interesting map!

Nandos is fine.

I was wondering the whole time if you're the same person from the SA reddit sub. I saw your username and some of your comments on lemmy world news i think.

It's nice to encounter familiar users on the lemmy side of things

I used the same nic just to get an idea of who it was that started this instance - if I was immediately banned, I'd have a pretty good idea. I don't think most people will use the same nic, though.

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

True, i don't expect that either. I used the same name because i couldn't be bothered really.

Nice to see a post on SA lemmy :) Nandos is overpriced but alright

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

Nandos is a Brittish restaurant innit? (Some brit probably)

[–] Retoffelnoster 3 points 1 year ago

Yup and let a native American walk into spur and have a heart attack

[–] padjakkels 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

where you coming from? have you seen any nando's advertisement yet? their videos....

[–] MrPoopyButthole 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It was a joke but seriously Nandos is everywhere in the UK and I've heard people saying its Brittish, Indian etc.

I grew up with Nandos in South Africa.

[–] padjakkels 1 points 1 year ago

haha okay. :D sorry for not getting your joke! I'm a bit slow tonight...

[–] padjakkels 1 points 1 year ago

Welcome!

  1. Yes, there is another one but this one is the biggest.

  2. Lol, noted.

  3. Nandos is over priced...prefer a Wimpy garage pie.

Pedro's is a decent Nandos clone. Almost like a generic medicine. Blatant copy and cheaper.
