Oh my god I have my entire life and my husband and kiddo’s entire life on TickTick.

Every tiny thing I have to do during the day is planned out… I can’t even express how much I love that app.

i’ve had the same thought as you.

i regularly use the sub tab. i watch youtube on weekends while i clean, so usually on friday i’ll check my home page a few times throughout the day, see if there are any interesting recommendations and save them to my watch later.

then in the evening i do one more home page scroll, then i slowly scroll my subs page and make sure i save anything that looks interesting to my watch later. then i might watch one or two videos from my WL that evening and i watch the rest (or what i can fit in) over the weekend.

I don’t get the point of subbing to a channel if you aren’t checking your subs tab. Like…that’s why it’s there lol bc the home page is a bunch of recommendations

Ok interesting, I noticed Fry’s voice first! It smacked me in the face how familiar but aged he sounded! I’ll have to pay attention to Hermes in the next episode.

Overall, I liked the episode! I thought the topical references toward the beginning were funny.

It felt very fast to me though. Maybe just because it was something new, idk, but it felt like it went by so quick.

Lemmy feels like Reddit to me and Mastodon feels more like twitter

so to me they’re both decentralized versions of popular social media

i just think of them as my new reddit and twitter since those companies are sitting at their desks jerking it all day

This was really well said!!

I’m here from Reddit and that’s what I’ve been doing, just subscribing to whatever I can find for each subreddit I’m losing, and then whichever one seems like it’s either most active or has the most quality content stays and I unsub from whatever sublems aren’t providing content.

This OP seems pissed off about subbing to multiple sublems that are the same but like…you don’t have to. Go use Reddit? lol

The multiple sublems thing is kinda the point of Lemmy, there isn’t one big overlord controlling everything

So what you’re saying is, Reddit is fucking creators by not compensating them, but when you take that work and repost it without compensation, it’s ok?

Besides, the great thing about Lemmy is that it’s not Reddit. It has a whole different vibe. I think it’s worth maintaining that.

i’m using the memmy app and it’s been awesome! maybe see if you can find a testflight link for that? mlem is good too but less polished

Same!!

My theory is that is has to do with the pace.

With a movie, it’s a slow burn. There’s usually some plot establishment in the beginning that goes slow, then a bunch of filler in between moments that actually further the plot.

With a show, your runtime is maybe an hour, but generally 30-45 minutes. Most shows each episode has sort of a main story and a B-storyline, and both wrap up nicely at the end of the episode. There’s less filler because there’s less time, so you feel like you’ve completed something without dragging it out for 2 hours.

And because you didn’t have to spend 2 hours forcing your brain to pay attention and make all those connections, it’s not burnt out, and it wants more instead.

I certainly dislike reddit but I do like lemmy.

It’s exciting watching the community grow and learning together how everything works. So far everyone I’ve met has been super supportive, I asked a question about where to find mod tools and someone went and commented on my communities and someone else reported them so I could see firsthand and practice!

Made my day that multiple people took the time.

I think as long as we all keep that attitude of community, and do our best to create content and participate, there’s no reason why lemmy can’t run circles around reddit.
