Lemmy

I was saying the other day there's been a noticeable uptick in activity in some of my favourite arts & crafts type communities over the last couple of weeks. Probably just a temporary blip, and our numbers are still quite precarious, but it's encouraging nevertheless.

I had to filter "Elon Musk" and "Linux" but after doing that, yes!

i find it's mostly content my older colleges in tech would find funny

Slowly and steadily, yes.

I'm trying to do my part by posting more content.

Yes, it is so much better, sometimes I forget Sync for Lemmy ain't Sync for Reddit.

It's decent after blocking all the fluff/low-quality communities. But it needs a way to follow threads & highlight new comments.

Honestly, kind of but maybe not really. I mean, yes there are improvements of course, but a bunch of them aren't very visible, and of course I understand that. It just feels very stable.

It kind of just works, for the most part, which is a good thing - minus this bug which has been fixed over a month ago but I guess is not live yet on every instance: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1968 because I still run into this bug, and it's still annoying unfortunately.

Outside of that, there's not really too much going wrong for me to notice any huge improvements.

As good as I feel Lemmy is, I find a lot of the meme & humor communities alarmingly depressing.

I'm not looking for 24/7 wholesome! But, man.. I just want to see funny memes.
