Pretty sure we're witnessing an AI gaining sentience. Amazing times.

Nothing specific on Lemmy yet, mostly sorting by new or active and scrolling through.

Back on Reddit, I was mostly on hobbyist subs, such as /r/mechanicalkeyboards, /r/hiking, /r/trucksim and /r/simracing

Nice! Watch out for the mousemat when mounting the wheel though. I had a nice leather mousemat which was ruined by clamping the wheel on it over extended periods.

Beautiful. Compact, functional and very practical. I love it.

Feddit.de because Deutschsprachig and I loved Reddit, but would love to see a successfully federated version of it.

Anger and spite, like what other have mentioned, but also, it's always nice to be part of a growing community.

You feel like you're actually contributing rather than just being a statistic.

Thanks! Amazing how far we've progressed technologically, but are still stumped and easily misled by crappy headlines.

No, definitely not bothered. But it wasn't always this way. I was very self-conscious from my teenage years up to the first few years when I started working full-time.

It was only when I started working that I had to learn to deal with it. I was always taking feedback and criticisms very personally and as an introvert, felt extremely down plenty of times.

I taught myself to see things from the perspective and scale of the world - 7 billion people out there, what does it matter that a few people think of what I do, or what I am?

Of course, cutting out social media definitely helped a lot too. I still have my accounts, but have stopped using them actively, at least the ones that expose my personal life.

With social media out of the picture, I was comparing myself to my peers a lot less and spent much more time on productive things instead - learning a new language, skills, picking up new hobbies and all.

It's not easy, but it is liberating once you figure it out.

I, for one, actually like the wefwef icon. It has a personality of its own.

Perhaps the ability to customise and select an icon would be the real solution here.

 

As per title, I do think this could be a pivoting factor on whether Lemmy (and other federated services) can reach critical mass.

Doing a simple search on major search engines would likely yield a Quora or Reddit result or more on the first page.

It's critical that Lemmy posts have that same kind of traction to attract a large enough user base.

That's just my observation.
