Lemmy_2019

I remember reading a melodrama from the 1800s where the protagonist, a failed writer, makes a deal with the devil to have a bestselling book. In the second half he becomes wildly successful, but is tortured by the knowledge that he is genuinely mediocre. It always stuck with me. Reminds me of people buying Likes.

r/TotallyNotRobots is spreading everywhere.

I don’t want to get all ‘Rick and Morty is for high IQs’ but I would imagine the type of user that left Reddit in the recent protest is a bit more clued in than the average r/jokes commenter.

The discussions around here certainly have a flavour of the Old Reddit, before Digg even.
