Reddit users are called Redditors. What are Lemmy users called? Lemmitors? Lemmings?

How well are the Lemmy fediverses growing? How many daily unique users do we have on this service? Will we overtake Reddit someday?

What differences should I get used to over here from what I was used to on Reddit? Thanks in advance.

No. Tankies are cancer. Exasperation at pure unfiltered propaganda from the intellectually dishonest simply isn’t fearmongering.

Really? In 2026 this is what fires you up? You are pathetic, in my country ICE is rounding up innocent people with masked thugs and disappearing them or executing them in broad daylight in front of their families, rightwing governments and movements are openly advocating for violence and racism (including antisemitism). These are RIGHTWING political ideologies of violence that are killing, maiming and traumatizing people as we speak and yet you want to jump on the internet and barge into posts by new people here to warn them about leftists?

Your motivations are extraordinarily suspect.

    You should do a Whataboutism in a feeble attempt to defend tankies.

    Oh never mind, you just did one. How is that working out for you?

    Your attempts to defend tankies are extraordinarily laughable.

    What is laughable is these lazy attempts to box me into the category of "tankie".

    It's probably all of your schlepping for tankies that leads people to suspect that you might be a tankie.

    Or maybe you all are actually the secret tankies because you spend so much time screaming about how bad the tankies are?

    Why would you care so much if you weren't trying to bury your denial about secretly being a tankie???

    Now that I think about it, almost every time it is brought up un conversation it is by people like you....

    Do you see how arbitrary your line of argument is? You can trivially spin it around, point it anything and say AHA! Gotcha!!

    Look through my post history, I do not fit into this cartoonish box of "tankie", not even remotely.

    Explain to me what makes me a tankie other than the fact that I find it annoying how piefed people are obsessed with tankies?

    A close reading of my comments will show that my claim is that you basically simp for tankies, not that you are a tankie. But it's clear why a lot of people believe you are a tankie.

    For an explanation of what I mean, just read with an open mind, as you're scouring my previous comments for a gotcha of some sort.

    Why? What happens if I don't take direction from Leave The Tankies Alone guy?

    Because you are obsessed with tankies to an unhealthy degree, we all deserve clarity on what a tankie is and why I am being accused of being one for finding y'all annoying.

    So what is it? What makes me a tankie? Put your money where your mouth is.

    Tankies like yourself promote the GOP and Trump, doing that and then complaining about ICE is idiocy while your actions betray your words.

    Again you expose your lack of curiousity about the people you lump into categories, if you look at my post history you will see I have posted LITERALLY HUNDREDS of articles about how much the GOP and Trump suck.

    Put a little more effort into your stereotyping please.

    Hypothetically, if you weren't a Tankie, then why defend them with such passion? Are you in denile about the actions of ML, grad, and Hexbear? Have you not seen the countless posts shaming the DNC and asking people not to vote? Have you not seen how the eastern bloc promotes and supports Donald Trump?

    If you're truly against Trump then you're harming your own ideology by helping Tankies.

    More likely is that you're a masked up authoritarian cuck just like the rest of them.
