Hell yeah! 2025 is the year of the linux Fediverse desktop!

I’m in the exact same boat. But I kind of realized, if I want to see a bigger fediverse, I’ll have to help build it up. As the classic saying goes, you can lead a horse to water; but first there’s gotta be water. So thank you for taking up the cause of building this lake :)

actually i don’t think that’s the saying

maybe this can make up for me not making one this year haha

I see where you’re coming from, historically the internet and large communities tend to foster that kind of aggression. I, for one, will be striving to build a positive environment though, and just maybe, we’ll see those fruits lead into a brighter future :). I myself am applying for some moderator positions to help take up that effort!

Never got very into short-form content, but I’ll give it some consideration!

Personally, I have hope that if a larger variety of people are posting and commenting (typical lurkers and such) then hopefully the echo chamber aggression will weaken a little, and hopefully foster a positive and friendly community. I’m trying to lead by example :)

welcome back, and good luck!

I’ve been using Feeder for Android, and I’ve had no complaints so far.

just hopped into a few, thanks for the recommendations!

is Loops out now? I was wondering when that’d come around.

hoping to join you there, friend

It’s a wonderful picture, thank you :) Sometimes I wish that I had saved old photos of mine before they’re lost to time.

I’ll look into it, thanks!

thank you!

I use Eternity, personally (feels good after having used Infinity so long), just how good is Thunder now?

yeah, the web-scraping is getting insane, but I think in my case, the motivation to contribute has finally overcome my data preserving tenancies.

You aren’t entirely wrong, but I feel it could help build an appearance of high activity, which would help attract people. Also; many people wish to contribute but stifle the words before they can come out of their mouth, and I’m hoping a post like this could be the push they needed.

You said it! I remember years back looking for reddit alternatives and the only things around were stuff like raddle.me. Seeing lemmy and the fediverse develop like this? It’s a dream come true!

I think I just might!
