Hey, I try to argue with at least one person a day on here! I'm doing my part
no you aren't
oh yeah? I argue with two.
Yeah? Fuck both of you.
First time scrolling this morning and I went to like this before realizing I already liked it from last night before bed...
Probably my larger issue with Lemmy as a whole. I work a job that has a lot of downtime but loud environments so my ADHD ass likes to just read content and comments since I need to pay attention to the noise around me. Then I get home and watch some TV or sports on my PC's second monitor while I want to scroll content and comments (Been a forum user since I was 8 years old) and the repetition here can get a little off putting.
Don't get me wrong I love it here. Beats Reddit. But still...
while Lemmy scratches my post reddit itch, this is one of the down sides. Everyone goes to Reddit, despite it being an AI Bot filled shit show, so you never get the same visibility. At least around here you get a better quality of poster, and you don't need to select your words quite as much.
That’s the worst part of Reddit. The absolute toxicity and superiority complex you see in these giant subreddits. 1 wrong word and everyone comes after you based on 1000 assumptions from that 1 word.

Search engines direct you to Reddit as a first page - even first result - choice. It's superceded Wikipedia in a lot of cases.
Which tells you organic human generated content is increasingly rare and here we are probably the last unpolluted corners of the human experience outside the non-online local experiences.

:-/ I seriously doubt that.
At some point, we'll have to find a better way of sifting the wheat from the shit. But I'd be crazy to assume bots around bouncing around the Lemmiverse pushing misinformation just like they are everywhere else.
It's not that bad, Lemmy still has a long way to go if they ever want to be something close to an alternative.
I can't wait for Lemmy v0.20 so we can block this garbage.
Yeah. I hate content too.

Low-quality, mindless meme content, yes. It rots your brain. You should stop consuming it.
So you hate original content lemmyers put effort into (discussion posts, memes, photos) and praise the laziest form of content (reposting articles someone on another platform made)? Do you want lemmy to become a parasitic platform depending on content from elsewhere to sustain itself?
discussion posts, memes, photos
These are not remotely equal. Low-quality, mindless meme content rots your brain. You should stop consuming it and start downvoting it.
Calling articles "lazy content" is extremely unintelligent. I'm disgusted that you should say that.
The "original content" you refer to is often screenshots of social media posts and reposted memes.

This is such a bizarre thing to say. Reddit and Lemmy are link/news aggregators. Their whole benefit is being a single site where people can share & discuss news, instead of having to visit a dozen different websites every day. Reddit started to promote low-quality meme content, which massively degraded the quality of the platform. It's extremely disappointing to see people on Lemmy promoting it as well.

Reposts, not articles themselves. Reposting someone else's writings from the web as a link is objectively low-effort work that could be handled by a dozen-line script.

Maybe they started as such, but now it's a small part of their scope. I don't perceive them as such, rather as a general-purpose forum. I go to Lemmy/Reddit to ask a question (e.g. how to repair a thing), voice an opinion, start a debate, talk about stuff, read comics, etc. I don't recall following a single community that is about link aggregation.
I have unending content and I block all the meme communities.
I think there's a rule that this needs to be posted every 6 months
RemindMe! 6 months
Dont know if we have those fancy remind me bots yet.
RemindMe! 3 months
Critical support to the real MVPs
I don't do memes, but I provide lots of animal pics. Mostly Sandy the Federiverse Horse and more recently, Broccoli Cheddar the Barn Cat
I came for the Sandy I stayed for the heartwarming.
