Today is my third year anniversary of joining lemmy. Time flies, feels like yesterday.
It’s been a good use of time - on the whole. Lemmy requires heavy curation to make the feed suitable, but once that is done its fairly breezy.
In year 1 I quickly gave up on any reasonable political discussion here. That helped alot.
I’ve grabbed coffee/lunch with three lemmies, all great people. the crazies don’t outnumber the normal people, but it feels like it sometimes. Joel noticed the same thing in hiring - https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2005/01/
I’m hopeful for the future of lemmy, with the 1.0 software making some much needed community tools widely available.
Lemmy is a much smaller place then it was 3 years ago, it does give me a sense of community (even if i am neighbors with the crazies).
How do I determine if I’m a crazy or a normal person?
Everyone is crazy to someone, that is normal! The duality of social media sanity
that’s crazy
Not on .ml so you’ve got a strong case for normal.
Quick, what do you think of Russia, China, Iran and North Korea? It’s the only way to know for sure lol
do you incessantly rant that anyone who disagrees with you or has a different life experience is a terrible awful unredeemable person that deserves to be killed or punished for daring to not be you or hold the same opinions and values as you?
if so, you’re crazy.
