Aww thanks! I’m just being a goof rambling about stuff now.

I have been extremely lucky with the people who have come to the stream! Various ages and maturity but I don’t believe I’ve had to timeout or ban anyone that wasn’t a bot. I have like..5 subscribers, maybe 3 of which aren’t just friends throwing their prime at me. Right now the subscriber perk is getting a custom walk on sound of their choice but not even everyone takes that. So right now the sounds are for everyone until maybe the community grows?
For VIP I was looking to change it to something else, but leaving the people who have it with the status like being “grandfathered” into it. It was very early into my stream and I just wanted a way to thank people for being there before I even hit affiliate to get channel points. Honestly all VIP gives right now is the badge in chat. I haven’t figured out what else to provide for them or how to create a separate “regulars” status or incentive so I’ll have to research that!
Thank you for the outside perspective on the potentially hurtful/alienating nature of the redeem name. I should’ve put more thought into it beyond thinking it’s just a harmless/good natured joke. I try to be as inclusive as I know how to be in my channel and that may not be interpreted as such. Will be changing that up for the next stream!
Your reply has been acknowledged with a reply. Thank you for your service!
I wouldn’t dream of replying to you, that would be a nightmare to do such a thing that would go against the wishes you have of not being replied to at all, again, a thing I would absolutely not do, as to retain your respect!
Yeah it feels like I’m just responding to everything now! I don’t even know who I am anymore
That’s alright, as long as you know that I believe in you!
Something I’m terrible at as well! I don’t think there’s a DM feature in Lemmy which is what I would say is the way to become more “friends” with someone than following them down comment threads.
Not trying to self-promo but I do have a Twitch channel and discord server of the same name (link in my bio) if you feel like stopping in and chatting more and whatnot! Open to anyone else who wants to be part of that community too!
Edit: realized there is a message feature, but it’s not available for me on the Memmy app for iOS, but appears to be available in the browser version of LemmyWorld!
I was a lurker on the first-party reddit app for the 99.9% of the time I was on there. The ads had just gotten out of hand with not being able to block an ad to get a different ad, I was so tired of getting “He Gets Us” trash so I switched over to Apollo. A week later they announced the API changes. I work in software dev so it’s just frustrating seeing this happen to all of the people out there trying to support their hard work.
Noooo! Don’t be sorry! Everyone is great!
Even Christmas themed for the holiday season!
Yeah for me it’s really gotten easier since I’ve started doing streaming games online and talking with various people and stuff. Having people come and go and figuring out when someone is being kind or rude has helped a lot for figuring out when to engage, avoid, and even remove.
It’s easy for me to ignore different comments and just let it be, but I do really think about what I say before throwing it out there which is most of the stress, but it’s always getting better!
Haha Id love to keep this name so I’d just have to abandon to another instance! Thanks again for being so chill and helpful!
