The old post has 24 votes and this has over 400. Lemmy has grown exponentially since then.

Thanks spez for being such a big lemmy growth contributor.

[-] dessalines@lemmy.ml 62 points 11 months ago

Dang we really have grown.

[-] Wxnzxn@lemmy.ml 18 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Ah, just like what Slavoj Zizek said about Stalinists: Joining into the applause themselves /s

In all seriousness, amazing work you are doing, one of the few projects I support financially, even with being on a subsistence-level income.

EDIT: You know what? I'll just leave this here for good measure:

Holy you've been here for four years?

[-] Wxnzxn@lemmy.ml 123 points 1 year ago

Yupp, blame my FOSS-fundamentalism and communism for being here early - but I still took a looooong break after first trying it out for a bit. Am elated it managed to grow a community since then.

[-] sturlabragason@lemmy.world 28 points 1 year ago

Yeah FOSS fundemental communists, we’re the worst echo chamber.

Comrade.

ayy, another OG

[-] Donkter@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

Sorry, I haven't been on Lemmy as long. How did Communism send you here?

[-] Wxnzxn@lemmy.ml 10 points 11 months ago

The short answer: It made me interested in non-commercial alternatives. The fact that the main devs are communists in their own right (even though not necessarily of the same school of thought as myself, but close enough), certainly helped, too.

BTW, just in case you are concerned about that - they are commited to free software principles and the software they develop here is certainly politically agnostic, and they can't and won't keep anyone from hosting their own instances with their own focus or forking the software in the worst case.

There are dozens of us!

[-] Rolando@lemmy.world 86 points 1 year ago

100M view from normies or 10 upvotes from chads. You decide.

Each upvote on lemmy is handcrafted by an actual human

[-] LostXOR@fedia.io 48 points 1 year ago

As an actual human, can confirm I use my human fingertips to press the upvote button on the posts and comments I enjoy.

[-] scroll_responsibly@lemmy.sdf.org 29 points 1 year ago

100% USDA certified organic, free range, artisanally handcrafted upvotes. Made with love.

[-] DrWeevilJammer@lemmy.ml 25 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Still accurate, the amount of joy from a handful of upvotes beats thousands of updoots from the other place

[-] Wxnzxn@lemmy.ml 30 points 1 year ago

100% right - I type while bathing in those sweet, sweet endorphins and taking in my brain thinking it's inside a valued person for a change

[-] thisbenzingring@lemmy.sdf.org 46 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

instead of upvotes, get 10 reply comments..

OMG ITS VIRAL!

[-] Wxnzxn@lemmy.ml 22 points 11 months ago

As 10 Lemmy upvotes are equal or greater than 100 Million YT views according to this metric, I am already deep into the billions of views, the whole population of the world has already viewed this several times

[-] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

Honestly, if I want dopamine hit from social media or forums, I prefer to get replies. I like discussions and see other people's opinions.

[-] YerbaYerba@lemm.ee 8 points 11 months ago

Unless it's an argument in the reply.

I'm constantly surprised at how many people upvote my Heathcliff without Heathcliff edits. It's the most derivative project I've ever done and that anyone pays attention is kinda amazing.

[-] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 20 points 11 months ago

I've have never seen tge original content, so from my point of view its original is yours and them someone add a cat (or a bird with a helmet? ) to it.

[-] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago

I keep meaning to talk to Peter Gallagher about why he does that but I haven't had a chance. I have a feeling. He just thinks that it needs a cat. Though I do think the helmets add something.

[-] swab148@startrek.website 35 points 1 year ago

Too many pixels, needs more compression

[-] jballs@sh.itjust.works 24 points 1 year ago

It's 4 years old. The pixels have aged since then.

[-] sangriaferret@sh.itjust.works 9 points 11 months ago

Only the finest aged pixels can satisfy the sophisticated Lemming palate.

Sometimes I like a post so much I hit the upvote button twice

[-] match@pawb.social 7 points 11 months ago

throwing you a downcite for balance ❤️

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 29 points 11 months ago

Every day I post on c/poetry, and every day I'm like hey, 15 people liked what I picked! Somehow a smaller scale means more.

[-] Fogle@lemmy.ca 12 points 11 months ago

I've posted a few of my finished mini paintings and it was so nice when people interacted

Like others have touched on, this place seems like a reasonable discussion with some real people. It’s not INTERNET BULLSHIT FIREHOSE.

[-] Luci@lemmy.ca 25 points 1 year ago

You're hitting a Mastodon level of upvotes here!!

[-] peanuts4life@lemmy.blahaj.zone 24 points 1 year ago

I use Lemmy because it appeals to my wish to be alone, by myself, with no one here beside me ❤️ social media peace at last.

[-] Wxnzxn@lemmy.ml 20 points 11 months ago

We can all be alone by ourselves here together ❤️

[-] Denvil@lemmy.one 14 points 11 months ago

Alone together brother!

[-] rbn@sopuli.xyz 9 points 11 months ago

Hey bro, you mind if I watch you being alone?

Lemmy upvotes are more rare and therefore more valuable

[-] nicknonya@lemmy.blahaj.zone 18 points 11 months ago

that's like half of lemmy!

[-] Pickle_Jr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I struggle so hard to get even 5 boosts on mastodon. How do y'all do it 😂

[-] Wxnzxn@lemmy.ml 7 points 11 months ago

Well, I am not on Mastodon myself, because twitter-like social media isn't my cup of tea, but from what I heard, engagement there seems to happen much more on a following-hashtags level than following-users level, so maybe (ab)using hashtags more might do the trick.

I can't name the last time I watched a YouTube video with 100M views. If it's that popular it's probably not something I'm interested in.

[-] BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Anything reaching those kind of numbers is probably a music video or some sort of nursery rhyme set to music. Youtube is mostly a music service.

Beyond that, there's a grammarly ad that hit over 500 million views, wonder how much they spent on that and a lot of random memes. It's real difficult to find the most viewed real non-music, non-kids, non-ad video. Probably still Charlie Bit my Finger (again). Except Mr Beast, not many others regularly topping 100M.

[-] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 16 points 11 months ago

Actually upvotes on Reddit is much harder. Because you'll get burried in so much shit, nobody will see your post. The algorithm is so shit that only the most popular communities get shown first.

Lemmy is much better, people will read your post and it will actually go somewhere.
