Whenever I’m thinking about posting a question in Lemmy I always get this feeling that not as many people will see it if I posted it instead on Reddit.

But again, the low quality of reddit posts always reassures me that I miss nothing

I’m here to prove you wrong.

Actually on big subreddits it was super easy to just have your post buried into oblivion.

Yeah I feel like posts have a better chance of surviving and having more visibility here.

If you’re missing Reddit, here, I’ll give you that fix…

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. All my posts get 14million+ replies. Git gud.”

“Ackshully, what you’re calling Lemmy is the server software, which is only a part of the ActivityPub protocol… (4 paragraphs of technical stuff).”

“And my Axe!”

“Wait, what’s a Lemmy?”

“Have you considered that these feelings might be a sign of depression? I took half a semester of a psychology class in college and…”

“Bro, don’t doubt yourself. Fuck the haters.”

“Bro, you doubt yourself because you know it’s true. Get alpha.”

“I thought this too, but then I got (some worthless product) and it fixed everything! I’m not affiliated in the sense that it is my product.”

“You could post to both! Step 1: Post to Reddit. Step 2: Post to Lemmy. Step 3: … Step 4: Profit!”

“Man, this sub doesn’t stick to its own rules. He doesn’t even mention federation. Someone ban this clown!”

“I am so insulted by this that I’m unsubbing, throwing my computer out the window, building a rocket, and flying off to Mars.”

“I am so insulted by all these replies that I’m unsubbing, throwing…”

“Oh no! I have too many social media platforms to post on!” There are kids dying from space-based lasers all across the world. Talk about first world problems…"

“Hey I think this is the thing that is in more of for every in the past inside.”

Feeling better?

I knew I was missing something. There should have been a crypto scam in there, too.

I don’t like peer pressure, so I’m going to skip this one. You guys are on your own.
