Some habits are best left behind. I'd like to see Lemmy continue to set quality above quantity instead of bow to social trends.

I kind of miss the kind of gimmick users that made you genuinely say "yeah, the user name does check out here".

Alas, I have but only one upvote to give

Came here to say this.

*Edit: thank you kind stranger!

New meme just dropped

Username checks out can be very funny since it often well… leads to the username and adds another layer of joke.
It needs to fit though of course.

Ah, the old Reddit Switcharoo

Also "My time to shine..." or something along those lines implying that they are the expert of current topic

Google en passant

Holy hell

I hate the comments in this thread soooo much.

It'll show up in any internet community eventually, don't worry.

I only partly agree. The part remembers all those situations where a comment on reddit almost made me spit out my coffee while at work because I found it truly hilarious

Please tell me what "based" even means so I can misuse it amongst a bunch of 12 year olds and make them fucking stop.

Python people be like: self.

It'd be real nice if someone created a browser addon that auto-downvoted these same comments and puns. With enough users you could wipe out anyone wanting to make the comments when they get 100 down votes just by people with the addon loading the comments section.

God this comment section is giving me a headache. Well done, folks.

Underrated comment.

I will say Reddit and lemmy are the only sites where comments genuinely make me laugh sometimes
