I never really used Twitter, but I'd start using Mastodon, if only to get people to start using Mastodon?

[-] GnomeKat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 5 months ago

mastodon is fantastic and is honestly better than lemmy community wise.

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 7 points 5 months ago

I'm not gonna lie, I have two problems with Lemmy, lack of niche communities (But we'll wait for Reddit to finish dying) and I seriously can't find the fucking porn

[-] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 6 points 5 months ago

And I’m here surrounded in porn that I didn’t go looking for… perhaps some instances don’t handle NSFW?

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

I'm on Lemm.ee, does it filter out porn or something?

[-] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 months ago

I’m not sure… I believe some instances do. I don’t know the difference between defederation and blocking. I just tried the lemm.ee web address and searched “all” and nothing porny turned up. Maybe there’s an nsfw filter you need to turn off? I’m not sure; but I do know there’s a tonne of porn here, somewhere. Good luck tracking it down.

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago

I should get a new account in a new instance then, cause.... yeaah

[-] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago

Same, I don't see any of it

[-] higgsboson@dubvee.org 1 points 5 months ago

Many instances defederate lemmynsfw.com and some also block all NSFW content.

There is porn, but to see it, you might have to create another account on a nsfw-friendly instance.

People who don’t exist for 1000, Alex.

This guy is famous for stating he can’t find ‘the fucking porn’ on the internet.

Who is “HawlSera”.

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago
  1. Are you saying I don't exist?
  2. No I can find plenty of porn, just none of its own Lemmy
  3. I'm not a guy

How does one use Mastodon (or Twitter)? It just seems like a fire-hose of miscellaneous people's thoughts. I think I prefer a discussion forum environment centered around specific topics.

[-] GnomeKat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

That's low key the charm of it. I use to only use reddit and it confused me too at first. I never used Twitter but on mastodon you can actually make friends with people. Friends who will discuss the topics you are interested in. I have queer friends on there and gamedev friend and math friends. We are interested in the same things, we boost posts that we all are interested in. Make general often vague looking posts because we know who will see it, like a long drawn out conversation. Its so much cozier than lemmy or reddit, here everyone is trying to correct each other or yell at each other or be the cleverest comment in the thread. On mastodon people are alot more interested in being authentic, thats been my experience of mastodon at least.

[-] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 3 points 5 months ago

Mastodon is really great in my experience. Very sane environment. It's not the same for everybody, but it's at least worth a shot.

[-] JudahBenHur@lemm.ee -2 points 5 months ago

Really? Jack Dorsey says it's suffering from the same mistakes Twitter made. Is it still better than Mastodon? I thought Mastodon was as close as we got to solving the problem for now, just lacking adoption and with your typical fedi-drawbacks

[-] JudahBenHur@lemm.ee 3 points 5 months ago

I'm enjoying it for the most part. Jack said he believes everyone should be able to post everything they thing with no moderation at all, as far as I can understand from what I've read.
