We all know it's true

And the comments section without FlyingSquid
- I have a lot to unload and nowhere to unload it.
  
  That's what he said
- Those 2 truly are the lemmyverse
  
  Wait where is SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world is he safe is he alright?
  
  I'm back on my BS is also a solid contributor
- and that's to say nothing of @Kolanaki@yiffit.net
  
  🤭
- Haha apparently they blocked me from their .world account so TIL that's my Lemmy experience
  
  I didn't block you.

Yeah I love Lemmy, but I feel like it's being held up by a few different people. I comment and even occasionally post to try and help with that, but it's kind of scary how much weight is on a few peoples' shoulders, and that's not even accounting for server owners and the devs
- That's the way it is with every platform, you only have a comparatively small proportion of people who do a huge share of the posting.
  Reddit has the advantage of being absolutely massive that the power posters is also still a huge number. I'd imagine even the biggest of entire Lemmy instances is smaller than some of the major subreddits, which personally I'm fine with. This emmy instance isn't some major corporation beholden to growing value for shareholders at all costs, but on the other end it still doesn't mean the admins can do everything without monetary or labor support from us.
- I like to think I make a difference with my inane bullshit, but K O L A N A K absolutely has me beat. Can't even get top commenter on my small instance lol
- The solution is to poach the best superusers from Reddit and get them to put their content here where it will be more appreciated.
- To be perfectly fair, this is also the case even with real life friend groups, where there are generally that one or two friends who hold the friendship the most.
- I try to post content, but I've found that it's certainly more clunky than submitting to reddit ever was. Share url to sync or jeroba isn't as smoooooth as submitting to reddit through RIF. I wish there was an easier way on desktop which is where I do most of my surfing.
  
  Every time I submit something, it gets removed for not being in the proper community.
  Like dude, the proper community doesn't exist and I don't have the time to mod a community!

I'm actually everyone else on Lemmy besides those two, running a few hundred accounts
- Can confirm, I am this guy 👍
  
  I’m also actually u/match

Whatever. I'll still be here.
Edit: Jeez. My egotistical comment was beaten by 7 hours. https://lemmy.world/comment/10773740
- Literally came here to say this. A few of you are keeping the place alive
- The squid has spoken!
  
  More sort of clicked my beak halves together, but yeah.
- No one cares about you 🙄 for the love of life. Get off it already... you even forced an emoji outta me, just to really get my point across /s
  Sorry sorry, trying to be sarcastic-mean, not actually mean. Just wanted to rib poke for a second, but not at the expense of a person I don't know. I truly like seeing your activity around here; couldn't help myself though. Ya dick
  I'm not great at sarcasm lol. I only wish the best for you, ya random squid 🐙
  
  Your sarcastic mean was sarcastic enough. Thanks and I wish the best for you too! :)
- Big squid we like you but picard has so much more rizz you must understand
  
  I realize I'm a pale imitation.

Shoutout to @fossilesque@mander.xyz aswell. Love this guys content.
- 😘
- Yes, single handedly rocking out there at !science_memes@mander.xyz

- Fuck lemmycelebs. Block them all, your experience will be much better
  
  Prolly just gonna block u

Where's the love for SatansMagottyCumFart?

Upvote because gimp
- Noticed the legendary pepper brush and immediately looked for this comment
  
  "Made with Freedom"

It would be an age of anime content, because I'm going nowhere.
- What! I applaud your effort in promoting Dungeon Menshi in literally every instance.
  
  !dungeonmeshi@ani.social has been a huge success. And the monthly active user-count suggests there's plenty room for subscriber growth still.
  Now that the season is over, I suspect the people who don't watch shows weekly will start joining, too. And season 2 will be even more great as then the community will already be around and have a user-base.
  Can't wait.

I half expected this to be posted by him lol

It would be as disastrous as the impact to PC gaming when Gaben dies.
- That's because according to Valve law, when he dies the whole company cannot be passed along to his successor
  
  Huh, what?

It makes my nerd heart happy that the most prolific posters are Trekkies, that’s the internet I left reddit for.

lemmy if they become the picard marooner

Dibs on being the palm tree.

I didn't know that that is

This post is way too meta.

I don't really know what drama caused it but when he stopped posting on c/risa@startrek.website it was a sad sad day.
- No it wasn't.
  Go check out the first few posts on !tenforward@lemmy.world to learn why. Essentially the startrek instance admin was power tripping, instance got abandoned by the main moderators and content contributors to get away from that.
  
  I understand that but none of the replacements came close to matching the level of content and quality, risa used to always be popping in recent and I've not found any of the replacements (I subscribed to them all) to be anywhere near that. Not saying the action wasn't warranted (it probably was) but still sad.

Yeah... He is the @Camus@jlai.lu of .world

this thread made me realize lemmy is in more ways like the forums I used to frequent when I was younger (that is about 20 years ago fuck...)

you are doing the lords work

Don't forget BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world

Free real estate for ze Germans! Hurrah!

Fr this dude carries multiple subs like atlas

Let's stop with the hero worshipping just because someone posts a lot. I saw Picard post a racist meme yesterday, heroes aren't perfect.
- Please share the link to that post.

  Note that the deer head and antler aesthetic is based on a number of depictions of w*ndigo that have gained popularity among white audiences and been heavily criticised for cultural appropriation.

I've blocked several of the most active posters here and I don't notice any difference on my feed. Neither would you.
- Flying squid blocked me apparently. I didn't notice until people here talked about how prolific he is with comments
  
  Someone ignoring your comments does not mean they blocked you.
  
  And what about the other dozen people yelling at you in replies
- It really improves Lemmy for me, especially with TPM. All he does is spam really old reddit memes that were old even back when I was using it, so I'm not missing anything.
