I love you.

Just trying to do my part to help non-corporate social media grow!

I am not entirely convinced you’re not a bot. But you get a pass thanks to your top notch content.

you pass the Turin Test of my heart

[–] June@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

Weird that a city in Italy has a test for this, but cool.

[–] xusontha@ls.buckodr.ink 24 points 2 years ago

You are the growth lol

At least one of your posts is always on the front page whenever I check, and more are always shortly after

[–] SolarNialamide@lemm.ee 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You're like that one power user on old school forums that you would see everywhere and everyone else would know and respect them lmao

Haha, thank you for the kind words. Everyone has been so nice on Lemmy, and it really keeps me engaged.

Bro is the embodiment of the meme "Doing my part!"

[–] Sneptaur@pawb.social 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Joined 3 weeks ago, thousands of posts and comments. Holy moly

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

My initial account was on lemmy.world, but since making this one on startrek.website, it has far surpassed it. I still hop between them to post whenever one or the other is acting sluggish.

They're called symbionts, you fucking racist

All I'm saying is if you put two symbionts in front of me, I just can't tell the difference.

Kudos for helping to make the fediverse great

Back at you, Cockmaster6000...

Mad respect, I've shared so many of your memes to outerverse folks and realised most of them come from you.

That's awesome to hear! I can only claim to have made a small % of the ones I post to lemmy, but I've always thought it would be cool to stumble upon one of mine circulating elsewhere one day.

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 36 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Just to be clear, no hate at all for the_picard_maneuver!

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 12 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

I don't hate him either, but I suspect a lot of the memes come from reddit. Not that I care. The memes are dope

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 31 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, I make OC for lemmy occasionally, but the majority of memes are saved from other sites.

I see it as a doing a little bit of dumpster diving so that lemmy doesn't have to.

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's appreciated. There's no way with how prolific you are that you could sustain it if it was all OC.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh god, it would be practically full time. I'm still really slow at making memes, but I'm starting to learn the tricks.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I still don't see how what you're doing isn't full-time.

They post so fast, they appear to be in two places at the same time.

[–] MBM 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Being able to see Lemmy karma scores feels... wrong. But yes, the Picard Maneuver is a treasure

[–] SimplePhysics@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

Not if it gives me that dopamine rush!

[–] Corgana@startrek.website 6 points 2 years ago

Truly the MrBabyMan of the Lemmyverse

[–] ZombieMantis@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

🫡 I'm trying to do my part, too.
