Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn't the thing that makes a social media site, it's the engagement

So even if you're used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they're more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they'll just go back to reddit

I wonder if pdub ever did his homework?

I just remember one of the first times I came across reddit, that someone shared the IP address of an FTP server Ubisoft had left exposed to the internet with no authentication required, and it was full of images of, iirc, unreleased games

I remember in like... 2009? and maybe for a few years after. Someone started that christmas tradition where they would just open a shared drive and people dumped tons of stuff into it.
