This is my first reply on Lemmy that isn’t a post.

Well, at least as far as today is concerned. Anyway, we’re both off to a good start.

Hi, and thanks!

Welcome!

As someone who used to be kinda similar, it can get kinda addictive! Don’t get too stressed about needing to post or anything, I’d say, but don’t get self conscious either I’d also say. It can be fun to post! And we’ll all be better for it!

Hello!

A few pointers for you

[-] viking@infosec.pub 5 points 2 days ago

Hope it's not gonna be your last, plenty of people blink out unfortunately.

I set this up hopefully to try to switch over from Reddit, which I just now logged out of, Bluesky and to a lesser degree Mastodon has effectively replaced Twitter and might do the same for Facebook, and Pixelfed is looking really good so far as an IG replacement.

How’s Reddit these days? Haven’t been there in a long time.

[-] DFX4509B_2@lemmy.org 2 points 1 day ago

Lessee, as far as how they operate their site goes, they pretty much destroyed all third-party front-ends by locking their API down, content-wise it varies between being a crazy place and an outright cesspit.

It's even more toxic than it used to be. I was just on there today. Now I now why I don't go there anymore! lol

[-] viking@infosec.pub 2 points 2 days ago

I agree Pixelfed looks good, I'm just having a hard time actually finding content. Without any algorithm whatsoever, my feed is effectively blank.

Never used any sort of microblogging platform, so I'll skip mastodon and bluesky, just don't get the point.

Welcome to the community, by the way. My name I go by is Leni, though I go by a number of nicknames (more than one actual names in fact due to parentage) and all are okay.

Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES (updated 01/22/25)

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling. To be concise, disrespect is defined by escalation.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible. You won't be punished for trying.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (politics or societal debates come to mind, though we are not saying not to talk about anything that resembles these). There's a guide in the protocol book offered as a mod model that can be used for that; it's vague until you realize it was made for things like the rule in question. At least four purple answers must apply to a "controversial" message for it to be allowed.
  4. Keep it clean and SFW: No illegal content or anything gross and inappropriate. A rule of thumb is if a recording of a conversation put on another platform would get someone a COPPA violation response, that exact exchange should be avoided when possible.
  5. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc. The chart redirected to above applies to spam material as well, which is one of the reasons its wording is vague, as it applies to a few things. Again, a "spammy" message must be applicable to four purple answers before it's allowed.
  6. Respect privacy as well as truth: Don’t ask for or share any personal information or slander anyone. A rule of thumb is if something is enough info to go by that it "would be a copyright violation if the info was art" as another group put it, or that it alone can be used to narrow someone down to 150 physical humans (Dunbar's Number) or less, it's considered an excess breach of privacy. Slander is defined by intentional utilitarian misguidance at the expense (positive or negative) of a sentient entity. This often links back to or mixes with rule one, which implies, for example, that even something that is true can still amount to what slander is trying to achieve, and that will be looked down upon.
