A moment of appreciation for a man who is undoubtedly the world's most successful promoter of Lemmy and the fediverse (lemmy.ml)

A man who grabbed our concept of a centralized internet by the balls and squeezed it so hard that the Lemmy’s user count 65xed in a 3 months period. Thank you for your service

It really is funny. The only reason I went to reddit is that my phone app for news at the time (2011) took a shit and someone recommended reddit. I downloaded an app and that was the only way I interacted with reddit for over a decade. Then he killed that app and I figured if I'm going to have to adjust to a new app, I'm going elsewhere. What a dumbass.

I don't even need to adjust to a new app anymore now that boost is here lol

Boost was the BEST app (in my opinion) for Reddit. I was excited yesterday when I finally got the notification that Boost for Lemmy was out!

you got your news from reddit for a decade?

[–] FaeDrifter@midwest.social 25 points 1 year ago

That's not what he said but I sense you're going to have an opinion to share about it anyway.

You eat pieces of shit for breakfast?

I think your response proves his point, man...

[–] Letstakealook@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Clearly went over your head there, bud.

[–] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ok, I'll entertain that thought...

[–] winky88@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago

Ok shooter.

The app you used for taking a shit took a shit? How ironic.
