  • I left reddit a while ago for Instagram. There’s a lot of art on Instagram, and I enjoy that I can interact with artists there. I also do some personal and professional networking there. But I always missed having a text first space for discussion. And I missed that old school forum feel. It’s been a long time since reddit fulfilled those needs effectively, and Instagram isn’t even trying. I heard about Lemmy when the API exodus happened and decided to give it a shot. So far it’s kept my interest. It has a fun racous forum feel still, and could grow quite a bit yet without losing it.







  • Yeah, I’ll give good tips for good service of mediocre food. The Alamo has some of the hardest working servers in the industry. I don’t care how good or bad the food is (usually good, but the overall amazing buffalo cauliflower can be inconsistent) if you crawl on the floor to give me my bill without blocking the movie for the person next to me, you get a good tip.


  • You could have communicated much more clearly. It was not at all clear that you understood the post and wanted to have a specific side discussion. It read like you were taking the post at face value to discuss the failure of IQ testing. It especially even more like a misunderstanding because the post wasn’t even about IQ tests, but standardized tests. In fact, your top level post and this one I’m responding to both felt snide to me. First snide about the graph and IQ tests, then snide about the fact that people didn’t understand your unclear communication. You came off as one of those snide reddit users zooming past the post to make a point, especially with your aggressive defenses. Slow down. Consider your messaging more carefully. We are here to have conversation. Make sure you are too.
