Unfortunately, the time has come for me to leave Lemmy. Time will show where we all end up. I’ll see you in the future… maybe sooner than you think?
Edit: Follow up post is here. Don’t worry. You’re not getting rid of me that easy. I’m just switching to piefed.world
Are you getting harassed again or taking a break, cuz life?
Just being an annoying little shit and announcing my switch to piefed.world in the most annoying way possible. You know. For consistency.

I really like sh.itjust.works and I’m a mod here. But if I wasn’t, I’d be going to piefed’s main instance in a second. They seem to have a nice configuration. Not a fan of world, but I’m sure there are other great instances.
I’ve got some philosophical disagreements with the Admin of piefed.social. Nothing negative or anything, we just disagree on a few things and see things differently. Mostly on memes. Lemmy.world and piefed.world I’ve been lucky enough to have great experiences with which is why I’m sticking around, despite probing from admin buddies of other instances to go to their lemmy or their piefed. Including one particular admin of dbzer0 who wants me to move over, the lovable asshole.
What’s the issue with memes? I have a piefed.social account set up for when the platform is mature enough for me to bail on Lemmy, but I’ll happily go elsewhere if there’s a good reason.
We just feel differently about how or what memes add to the fediverse. It really is just a difference in philosophy. As far as I’m aware, there are no serious differences. It’s just minor. Rimu and I had a discussion about it a while back and there’s no bad blood or anything, we see things differently on the Fediverse. Rimu, from what I can tell, prefers things to be a bit more conversational and discussion based. I like things to be a blend of discussions and memes. That’s really about it.
Ah, okay. As long as .social is just limiting hosting memes, not blocking them from elsewhere, I don’t have a problem with them. I’m with you, I think memes have their place.
