Worked great when the artist formerly known as Prince changed his name to a symbol.

      This, I’m so sick of “I want to hurt something… so I’m going to continually talk about it”.

      It’s the worst in games, because all it does is get more people to talk/know/hear about a game. Cyberpunk 2077 was a bad launch, instead of just harping on that, I wish every post was “Instead of Cyberpunk 2077, I’m playing X game and it’s amazing” Get people interested in something else… and in general stop talking about this shit.

      Lemmy users trying to not talk about Twatter or Reddit

      Yep, this is exactly the kind of worthless post that started making reddit unbearable years ago.

      Can we please not immediately ruin this new platform with this shit so soon?

          I was talking about OP.

          In particular, it’s low effort, attempting to be funny/snarky about about a pop culture or political news item, usually stolen from somewhere else and posted to the wrong community (why is this on asklemmy?), but it gets attention because it panders to the majority of the user base.

        Considering we still constantly talk about reddit… no it’s already been ruined.

    Nah. Prince changed his name to stick it to the record label that was fucking him over. That was his livelihood at stake.

    No one needs Twitter. I don’t even have an account.

      And Prince was so good we would listen to his new stuff no matter what he called himself.

    Saw someone on lemmy calling it ‘Ten’, thought that was quite funny.

      I like calling it “ten”. I don’t think Musk would like it, so that is what I will call it.

    I just call it the “I stopped caring about that site a long time ago” site.

    How about we don’t talk about it at all?

    I’ll continue to refer to it the way I do now, which is to not refer to it at all.

    The amount of posts about Twitter and Musk are flat out disturbing…

    would be funny if everyone just started calling it “ten”.
