been a long long time since I’ve seen this template, noice.
In an absurd world we act absurdly.
I like a bit of levity, especially when much of the political news sounds like a shitpost. At least here one can recommend punching Nazis and saying kids should be allowed to physically defend themselves while being titillated by soapy tiddies and letting the bean team bake.
Guilty as charged
What the uncultured calls shitposting, I call philosophy.
The internet is one giant shitpost. It’s a shit microcosm of shit Randy. Just shit muffins all the way down.
Not another night of the shitternet, please?
Shitpost is a catchall community. You can post just about anything here. There’s a lot of discussion that goes on in some posts, and other posts that are simply ‘heh bewbs’ level content.
I love the randomness of it because it jives with the way my brain works. I flit about like a methed up hummingbird, and so does this community.
I feel like Lemmy/Piefed made a big mistake if you compare it to the early days of Reddit. Peoplee here always try to put everything into neat little categories called communities, but most of them are dead or only have a single person posting stuff with zero comments. In the early days of Reddit there were no subreddits, you can still see how that looks on Hacker News for example. Lemmy should’ve started like that and introduce communties much later, as a consequence [email protected] has become the catch all community all this should’ve started with.
That’s true.
I have three pretty much dead communities I made which seemed like good ideas at the time but are just way too niche and I have way too little time to promote them. I’m subscribed to a pile of communities that are dead as well
that’s actually a flaw not a feature, shitposting is the lowest effort posting in any community and a lot of subs on reddit ban shitposting from their subs because it drowns out all the other content and community
that is to say the most popular comm in this place takes the least effort
which makes lemmy less of a reddit alternative and more a 9gag alternative
Or it’s genius because anyone who has some shit to post in a real community either decides it’s better for here, where it can be enjoyed and it doesn’t drown out the real content, or they try it there, the mod stops them, and instead of getting all butthurt about it they can bring it here where it gets seen by more people anyway and still the real community stays pure.
Still get comments removed by mods
And it’s not even close
How do I see this on my side?
Not sure which client you’re using but on Summit click on “You” in the bottom right, then scroll down to “Local account stats” and it should be in there
To be noted: it works only if you use only summit to use lemmy, otherwise it’s kinda useless as that feature only works locally on summit
Oh, I see. Didn’t know that. Do other clients have a similar feature?
I use Thunder and it doesn’t
How do you see that stat? And what are the numbers specifically?
The number is the number of posts viewed that belonged to that community. A view is defined as either opening the image or tapping on the post.
You’re telling me we can be tracked… online?!
Shit shit shit shit.
Ah makes sense, thanks. How can you view that stat? I’m curious what mine are.
This is a feature in Summit (a Lemmy/PieFed app). If you are using Summit you can view these stats in You > Local account stats.
Disclosure: I am the developer of Summit.
Oh neat. Thanks!
Lemmyshitpost isn’t one of the top ten communities on Lemmy for no reason
The stick enthusiasts community will be avenged for this ghastly slight.
short and sweet
Wait, it’s all shitposts?
Always has been
