Somehow I fell into the routine, motivated by wanting to see communities grow on lemmy, and I’ve just kept going.
You’d be surprised how quick I am at it now. The actual posting probably only takes 5-10min per day, and then whenever I have time to check my phone, I’ll catch up on my inbox.
The porn subs need more posts.

I want to learn that power.
I mostly post from my phone, using the Voyager app. You can star a handful of communities as favorites and keep them at the top of your list, so it doesn’t take a lot of scrolling to find the right one.
Do that a few thousand times over the past year or so, and you get pretty fast at it!
Thanks for sharing technique.
You’re the George Washington of the fediverse.
Or its Karl Marx, considering it’s the fediverse.
Also props to you for making such silly maps! Honored to have you as a fellow mod of [email protected] !
<3
But what goldmine do you use to find content?
God, all over. You name it, and I’ve probably found content there. Random stuff from my Google recommendations, topic searches, reddit (rarely), Twitter/X, Tumblr, imgur, memes my wife sends me, YouTube (some people actually post memes there), etc.
Pretty much anytime I see something that makes me laugh or I think Lemmy would enjoy, I add it to my (now massive) vault of memes and images.
And if I’m feeling inspired (or bored), I’ll sometimes make my own.

That’s the spirit of the pre-2010s internet for you, the energy that made the sites we have today in the first place.
Multitasking is the name of the game 😎 (i have untreated ADHD please send help)
Pretty sure this is what my issue is. Hyper focus on work for an hour or two at a time; 10-15 mins of memes. Rinse repeat
But that actually sounds perfect?
Just send you a prayer of help, you received it?? <3 But keep the posts coming!
Too bad Kbin didn’t last, so your postcount isn’t quite accurate.
RIP. A lot of the best material I’ve reposted/been reposting though.
RIP kbin Ernest was a real one
I’m OOTL, what happened to Kbin?
Forked to Mbin.
This is one of the crazy parts of the Fediverse that I don’t understand yet.
I am aware of Kbin and was under the impression that it was very popular. I haven’t been there but how would I know when an instance disappears or where would I be able to find out where it’s been picked up later on?
The email analogy kinda works here.
- Imagine an email server dies forever. All of the email that it sent is still out there. If you are on another server, any emaills to/from people on that server are stil in your local email storage.
- Likewise, a post that was made to kbin.social is still out there, if someone outside of that server was subscribed to that kbin.social community (“magazine”) when the post was made.
- To find out the “new” server… well in an ideal world the old server would at least have a notice to that effect. But this case involved a medical emergency, so that didn’t happen.
Click here for an additional detail which may be amusing
- See: https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] This is the copy of the kbin.social community “13th floor” that was made on lemmy.world to show people on lemmy.world.
- Now look at: https://lemm.ee/c/[email protected] This is the copy of the same community, but made for the lemm.ee instance. You’ll note that it is missing a post that was made on July 6th. That’s because the July 6th post was made by a user on lemmy.world. Because kbin.social was down by then, the post didn’t “federate” from lemmy.world through kbin.social to lemm.ee.
- See https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] for another example. waveform.social was an instance that died, but people were still posting to the lemmy.world copy, but only lemmy.world people were able to see those posts because they were not federating. So in comments we just decided to make any new posts to another community on a “living” instance, and we put a notice to that effect.
Interesting, the Lemmy World 13th floor link takes me to K-Bin because I’m using the Voyager app. Normally, it’s nice that the app handles those links this way, but it seems, in the case of instances which have died, where commenters want to link and show people new posts that have been happening, the Voyager feature is actually a shortcoming.
How does this ideal from public website links such as YouTube made to seem ideal?
Wat
Kbin was a project from a solo developer who also ran the main instance but had his real life (health issues, IIRC) demand all his time in the past few months. He had to abandon the project and the instance. Since it was open source it got forked and is continuing under the new Mbin project.
I hope stamets is ok
I feel like I’m good friends with The Picard Maneuver, Flying Squid, and Kolanaki, just because they’re in all the same threads I am.
I don’t even consciously interact with specific people on Lemmy, but sometimes I just happen to be paying attention to the usernames and I do the Leo pointing meme like “Hey, I recognize that guy!”
One of the things I love about the fediverse is it’s not too busy for me to recognize usernames. Feels like an old phpBB board.
That’s so far my favorite part of the community. I pretty much exclusively browse the “everything across all instances” thing and a handful of names have become really recognizable over the last few weeks.
Fuck kolanaki and their annoying ass name. Blocked them long time sgo because of it
Sheesh, dude. Why hate a person that much over their name being displayed differently?
anything longer than “brb” and their terminal can’t display it correctly
Also this
Those big blue letters are revolting. It’s like getting blasted with a pop up ad in an otherwise clean UI
It’s easier when you didn’t have a job when you joined and you still don’t.
Originally due to illness, but at this point also by choice since a parent is required to be at home in order to help my daughter stay on track with her online (public) school work.
Still got waaaay too much time with nothing to do.
Yeah, I usually comment while in a waiting room for an appointment. Like right now. It’s easy to scroll while passing time.
Thank you for your service.
ngl I blocked them because I got sick of seeing stale memes reposted with vaguely related titles. I thought they were a repost bot but that might be going too far
Damn. That’s like 90% of Lemmy just… gone.
I just went to your instance to help guess if you might be okay with a slightly inappropriate comment as a reply in a different comment chain (because you’re not a fox, lol).
RIP Yiffit. Any decision which instance you’re moving to yet?
Pawb is seemingly federated with most chill instances and has open reg if you want a furry home server
Trying to register there but I never got the verification email or a reply from anyone about doing it manually. :/
Fr, he been here 3 weeks and already got tired of it. Damn that’s…something.
quality over quantity my friend
What am I reading? 🤨
They quit their job, started posting a bunch. Yet they still can’t post as much as another user on Lemmy.
The datascrapers must be fed.
lol
lots of people work online so its possible to feed this place while feeding the company
Feed the chicken, Hayley
The trick is to get to a job that runs itself or doesn’t care if your in or not.

I don’t know who is The_Picard_Maneuver and at this point I’m afraid to ask
Not who… what
Hi
Nice to meet you bro \0
Boo, it would have been funnier if they found it and nobody tagged them.
they’re the same person
I know on what side of the Tuvix debate you’re on.
how could you tell?
I can’t, I was bluffing. I got nothing on you. *runs away*
Haha, thank you for the tag. Would’ve missed this!
Every time I go to the bathroom, I make a comment.
I think I might have kidney disease.
So now every time you want to make a comment you get the urge to go to the bathroom?
Or a bladder problem.
Maybe get your prostate checked too
I love how this post has been up for six hours, nobody has tagged them, and they haven’t found it on their own yet.
deleted by creator
Yeah…how do I get in on that action?
Step 1. Quit job
Step 2. Business as usual
Step 3. Starve
You’d need to have a job first
