I actually know one person IRL that uses Lemmy. We both found it independently of one another.
No, I’d be extremely suspicious of such person.
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.
What do anarchists get paid in? Weed?
If you take a look at the most valuable thing in my appartment, that would seem to be the case
A wooden one? Or did you mean a suitcase?
I hate tankies, but I’ll shill for them based on the payment plan.
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 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 a suitable amount of a liquid safe fie 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!

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
no
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!)
Do you ship?
No, unfortunately. If I knew you and you were in Colorado, you would get some for free.
Been to Denver once. Had a great time. Loved it and would definitely go back! Now that you mention it, I have been looking for a reason to get back there, haha!
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.
(Feel free to navigate to my first few posts on lemmy.ca for pics. It’s too off topic for this specific community, so I’ll refrain from linking directly. Edit: Fuck it: https://lemmy.ca/post/15727748 )
Fine work 👏👏👏
If they do they probably don’t talk about it, tbh.
This is verifiably false. Anyone on here just cannot shut up about being on here (sample size = 1).

Well of course I know him. He’s me.
It’s easy to find other Lemmy users IRL. Show up to any Linux meet up, and roughly 5-10% seem to use Lemmy.
how do you find Linux meetups?
I happen to live close to a couple of universities and have been friends with some of the CS faculty for a number of years. I generally just tag along with them.
Through Lemmy?
I do not know and will never try to find out.
Yes my sibling uses Lemmy. It was them that prompted me to join.
Yes I have been a Lemmy advocate since I joined, but I have only ever gotten one person to use Lemmy. I told one of my daughters friends mom about Lemmy. She does not allow her daughter to use social media. Except for Lemmy.
So that is it. My one conversion. I have kind of given up on trying to convert people. I still love Lemmy and the Fediverse, but the year of Lemmy mainstream has yet to come.
Yes. I shared a Star Trek meme with a coworker and they asked me where I got it. I told them about Lemmy and Tenforward and another coworker chimed in with “where every Vulcan knows your name”
not that I’m aware. my wife made an account somewhere but doesn’t use it
I only saw him in concert once.
I’m still trying to figure out how to use it in the phone 😂
