I just joined here :3
Yea, I love it here
ich_iel carries like one whole third of my lemmy experience and I don't even know German.
Hahah, I'm german and I'll check it out.
People who upvote and leave comments also hold up the fediverse!
Not gonna lie, those who comment and argue and debate are heroes…
A huuuuge thank you also to @anon6789@lemmy.world for all these superbowls! Your posts are a true blessing!
For me, ever since I’ve been here, all those adorable owls have always been a symbol of what’s wonderful about Lemmy.
Everyone's support and encouragement has meant a lot. If I wouldn't have become a poster here, I likely never would have pursued working with owls, but thanks to you all, I worked with a Screech Owl and 3 Great Horns yesterday, along with 4 Red-tailed Hawks, 2 Red Shouldered Hawks, and a bunch of opossums and squirrels.
You guys listening to me and encouraging me to keep sharing gave me the push to go and volunteer, and my life has been so much richer getting to work with so many amazing animals and fellow animal rescuers.
Aww, I'm so happy to hear that! I wish you all the very best, and thank you so much once again for letting us all be a part of this—even if it's just in a very small way.
If anyone is ever interested in volunteering, I can answer many of your questions! Most things you'd want to do have a very low barrier of entry.
I'm already thinking about anything more I could do. Those little creatures are so majestic and useful, and some species could use some help in my home country, too. It's truly commendable that you're standing up for them and raise awareness. We need a lot more people like you—then the world would be a much better place. But hey, you're showing us how we can all do our part.
Here in Germany, there are various professionals who are employed and mainly funded by the government, but if I ever have to deal with owls myself I'll get in touch with you right away.
I joined my local nature conservation a year ago, and you definitely played a part in that. I only provide a little financial support, but maybe I can do even more—besides following their very helpful recommendations for protecting nature (which is why I now only grow wildflowers on my balcony for example).
That is excellent what you are doing! Anything helps so much.
I don't know how things work in Germany, but I took a quick look at the references in the c/superbowl sidebar and we have 2 lists of rescues in Germany.
I pulled up a random one and checked their "Support" menu and saw volunteering right away.
Ehrenamtliche Mitarbeit Insbesondere am Wochenende fehlt es an Unterstützung in der Tierpflege. Selbst, wenn jemand nur ein bis zwei Stunden Zeit hat, ist das eine große Hilfe. Vorkenntnisse sind dabei nicht nötig. Zu den möglichen Aufgaben zählt neben dem Füttern von Jungtieren beispielsweise auch das Säubern der Volieren. Außerdem werden handwerklich begabte Helfende gesucht, die Reparaturen vornehmen können, Fahrdienste übernehmen oder die Futterwiese mähen.
Wer sich ehrenamtlich engagieren möchte, erreicht uns telefonisch unter info@wildvogelhilfe-rheinland.de. Bitte eine Nachricht auf dem Anrufbeantworter hinterlassen, damit wir uns zurückmelden können.

Volunteer work Especially on weekends, there is a lack of support in animal care. Even if someone only has one or two hours to spare, it's a great help. Previous knowledge is not necessary. In addition to feeding young animals, the possible tasks include, for example, cleaning the aviaries. In addition, talented helpers are needed who can carry out repairs, take over driving services or mow the feed meadow.
If you would like to volunteer, you can reach us by phone at info@wildvogelhilfe-rheinland.de. Please leave a message on the answering machine so that we can get back to you.
And our lives are made richer by your presence here!
Super happy for you!
I'm glad you all still enjoy what I share! I had assumed you all would have been bored ages ago. 😄
I was first introduced to Lemmy during Reddit's API fiasco back in 2023, and this exact type of post was made back then too where the entire community is held up by a very small numbers of users who post excessively. That means in 3 years, this platform hasn't grown at all. It's still stuck as a niche that most people either avoid or don't care about.
Disagree. There are far more posters that post consistently now a days. Before it really was like... 4 or 5 of us but now there's far more than that.
Sure, the volume might be less, but the quality doesn't falter.
I left Reddit for you, and no regrets.
Hey, I try to argue with at least one person a day on here! I'm doing my part
no you aren't
oh yeah? I argue with two.
Yeah? Fuck both of you.
HEROES!!
i dont post memes but i hope i am helping
You comment. You're adding to the fediverse <3
while Lemmy scratches my post reddit itch, this is one of the down sides. Everyone goes to Reddit, despite it being an AI Bot filled shit show, so you never get the same visibility. At least around here you get a better quality of poster, and you don't need to select your words quite as much.
Better quality of poster? All of these memes OP is talking are just straight from Reddit.
Totallynotjessica, ickplant, ladybutterfly, stamets make lemmy for me. Always posting so much good stuff.
Shoutout to mia lately, violet when shes on a spree, and erotador even though shes less active now.
You are most welcome. Big love to my fellow comrades @the_picard_maneuver@lemmy.world @pugjesus@lemmy.cafe @stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Uh, oh, don't forget @anon6789@lemmy.world with all the superbowls
Lemmy has given to me, I give to Lemmy! 🦉
anon mate I can't believe i forgot you! Thank you for the superb owls
No worries! The focus is on the animals, not me anyway. 😉
That’s what a true hero would say! Thank you so, so much!
I just mentioned you again since I made a typo at first and wasn’t sure if the mention would still work after I edited it. But it worked out—hey, better safe than sorry: credit where credit is due!
