As a person who really gets stuck in his ways and hates having to change things if I don't have to, here I am on Lemmy. I'm ready to settle in.

Lemmy has been giving me Old Internet Forum vibes so far and I love it. The shift towards centralized corporate homogeneity over the last 15ish years has been a horror show to watch and it feels like it's starting to crumble a bit, which I'm eager to see happen.

If I remember correctly, they say that the rocks in the cavern are merely "the most delicious". So this is really the equivalent of a kid opening the fridge and seeing that they're out of pizza rolls and whining that there's nothing to eat.

Try sorting by Top: 6 Hours, that keeps things a little fresher. Also you could sort by New, but that can get overwhelming depending on the level of activity.

To me it feels like texting an ex after a breakup. I know I shouldn't but...

Time to start cranking out those 20x gravity handstand pushups

Better than a car selfie featuring a hat and sunglasses.

Hey I just wanna say it's good to be back! I've been having 196 withdrawals.

I extend the same consideration to the Lemmy apps as well. They're all in various stages of development, but as buggy as they can be, they run better than the official Reddit app even now.

I'm excited to see where this goes. The vibe is very different from Reddit in a good way. Hopefully one day we won't be looking back and reminiscing about "when Lemmy was good before it got ruined"

Which logically means we will reach a critical point where the entire human race is involved in the production of Batman reboots.

Liftoff, because my phone is apparently too old for Jerboa

Good to be here. Things are moving fast with all these apps. This is all very exciting and promising.

I'm pleased to see an active Frasier community here! When my favorite Reddit app closed I felt like Martin losing Duke's. Hopefully Lemmy will be my McGinty's.

Infinity was the app that really made Reddit click for me. As far as Lemmy goes, Liftoff is the best out of the 5 or so that I've tried.

I've been watching through Babylon 5 for the first time and it's so good. I was aware of it when it was running in the 90s but I wasn't big into scifi TV shows at that point. I've watched through Star Trek TNG like 3 times (until they took it off Netflix) and The Orville twice (until I cancelled Hulu).

After I get through Babylon 5 I will choose between X-Files and Stargate SG-1, two other 90s shows I slept on. Overall I'm loving this. Because it's all new to me, and yet it's nostalgic at the same time. I remember the ads for all these shows, I recognize a lot of the actors from other things.

Frasier: [Nervously pouring drinks for Lilith, himself, and a visibly devastated, nearly catatonic Niles] Dear god, but Frederick has always had academic aspirations. Remember when he was six years old and he wanted to dress as Archimedes for Halloween? What on earth could he possibly wish to pursue now?

Lilith: He wants to be a rapper.

Niles: [visibly confused] He wants to work at the mall?
