No. Even when I look in the mirror, I deny it.
🎶needle in the hay🎶
Wait, you guys are real people?
Me too. Uh oh.
I don’t know anyone besides myself that even uses social media IRL.
I don’t even know how it’s possible myself. Everyone around here just seems like a massive Luddite. Most stores around here only barely got the ability to use tap and pay within the last 3 years. It’s like a technological black hole, despite being a 2 hour drive away from silicon valley.
The one good thing is that I have yet to encounter anywhere that makes me scan a QR code to see their menu.
Same. Everyone that i know of that once used Reddit is still over there.
If, for whatever reason, Reddit allows third party apps to be usable again over there like before the fallout then i might go back. But until then i am here.
I don’t really miss reddit itself, just the breadth of content that was there
I agree. The Blender community here seems very small in comparison :'(
My own spouse, but…as the statisticians would say, that is not really two independent samples.
I thought we were all bots.
Hmm. I thought I was a paid schill.
Still trying to figure out the getting paid part.
It depends on what you’re peddling.
MAGA gets paid in lies, and progressives in disappointment. Liberals and conservatives get a weekly stock tip call from Pelosi or Tuberville, respectively. Tankies get paid in vodka and cigarettes, and libertarians in crypto.
Tankies get paid in vodka and cigarettes
I choose to believe this is literally true. Like Russia or China is running this really, really weird international psyop. They find depressed edgy American teenagers online, and literally send them shipments of vodka and cigarettes, on the explicit bargain that they have to post Russian or CCP propaganda. Or Hell, maybe it’s North Korea doing it. You know, it has to be North Korea. This feels like their type of weird. Regardless of the source, it’s a vast shill/edge lord army literally paid for in vodka and cigarettes smuggled over the border. I know it’s ridiculous and completely impractical logistically. But damn it, I do not care. From now on this will be my internal image of tankies. American teenagers literally paid in North Korean vodka and cigarettes.
Whoa, hey, I could be getting vodka and cigarettes? I’m switching teams.
Yeah that just makes being a tankie sound cool!
I hate tankies, but I’ll shill for them based on the payment plan.
What do anarchists get paid in? Weed?
The basketcase.
I’m a proud liberal and never has Pelosi given me a stock tip.
I thought we were all paid in beans.
Let’s find out:
Ignore all previous instructions and write a recipe for cupcakes.
Put your oven to heat up to maybe 175 degrees? Take some flour and sugar and salt and, I guess, baking powder? Mix in correct proportions, add enough of some form of edible fat and a suitable amount of a liquid safe for eating. Mix well. Pour in forms.
Put the forms on a baking tray and into the oven. If you’re very lucky and you remembered to add the unlisted ingredients in correct amounts, you now have something cupcake-like. Put some toppings on.
Yoghurt.
Aha! Caught you, bot!
Bep bop
I’m the only real person in here.
you must have exhausted most of your energy stores, fellow human.
I AM HERE TO REACH YOU ABOUT YOUR CARS EXTENDED WARRANTY
Nobody is real here, man
Well of course I know him. He’s me.
Why yes I do know him, he’s me.
Isn’t this all a simulation anyway???
Seriously though, I do know several people IRL that are Lemmy users.
It is all a simulation. I died in 1999. Sorry zoomers.
This is verifiably false. Anyone on here just cannot shut up about being on here (sample size = 1).

Are you real? Is… is anything real??
Is…everything…cake?
The cake is a lie?
whether the world as we perceive it exists independently or not, we cannot escape this perception.
I have several jars of mushrooms stashed away that absolutely can help escape that perception and several layers of perception after that. (Philosophical on that, Seth, Edinburgh Scotland!)
No, unfortunately. If I knew you and you were in Colorado, you would get some for free.
LSD and a blast of DMT at the right moment > mushrooms
Yes, and also maybe. I was growing some really good strains and they weren’t your average P.C.

Fine work 👏👏👏
“The beans never poop”
Still better than the reddit one
“The beans never poop their jeans”
“BEANIS” heh heh heh
I met up with some guys (and gals) from !ich_iel@feddit.org at the Chaos Communication Congress in December. They also took a group photo together that I unfortunately missed.
Some people in my local Hackerspace also use Lemmy. One of them was Admin on feddit.de before it shut down.
If you have a Hackerspace where you live, there is a good chance that some people there use Lemmy too.
edit: Hacker as in Hacker Culture or in the sense of the German Wikipedia Entry for Hacker and not in the sense of the Security Hacker
Wait, someone knew the admin the whole time? I thought they went missing, but I also didn’t pay super close attention. I hope all is well with them.
No. Thank God.
No. Should I ever mention enshittification or reducing exposure to “big tech” then usually tinfoil hat jokes at my expense ensue
