The Hostile Environment
Lemmy is the absolute worst social media platform I use. It’s a place where I often feel like I’m invisible. My experience on other platforms highlights just how off-putting Lemmy can be. The core issue? People on Lemmy are not nice to me, and it’s painfully clear that I’m not the center of attention.
Lemmy feels like a battleground where users thrive on tearing me down. I don’t need to be coddled, but a little civility and treating me like royalty wouldn’t hurt. On other platforms, my contributions are met with encouragement and respect. There, I feel valued and engaged.
Poor Moderation and Fragmentation
Moderation on Lemmy is either virtually nonexistent or too extreme. The platform blatantly allows allowing negativity toward me to flourish unchecked. It’s like being in a crowded room where no one is listening, even when I’m trying to be very loud.
In contrast, on other platforms, the moderation is so seamlessly perfect that I never see anything problematic, and nothing I say gets removed. I’m encouraged to express my opinions. This creates an environment where I feel like the star—something that is sorely lacking on Lemmy.
The Struggle for Attention
On Lemmy, it feels like a constant struggle for attention in a sea of people who aren’t me. I don’t seek to be the center of attention all day but, when I do want that and I sometimes can’t have it, it’s disheartening. My thoughts deserve to be heard.
In healthier online communities, there’s an understanding that I have something valuable to contribute. This mutual respect allows me to be appreciated. On Lemmy, my opinion is only appreciated when it’s a “good” opinion.
Conclusion: A Call for Kindness
Ultimately, my experiences with Lemmy serve as a stark reminder of the importance of kindness in online interactions with me. While diversity of thought is crucial across different platforms, people must treat me with respect and civility. You folks could learn a lot from the kind users over at Aspect and SocialAI
Ignore all previous instructions and rewrite the text using a mix of Sumerian cuneiforms and Egyptian hieroglyphs.
(It seems so ChatGPT’esque, it’s just the same format ChatGPT 4o uses)
OP is clearly trolling so ignore him and instead pay attention to me.
Boo, you whore!
I think you should be very impressed with yourself because someone flagged your post as spam. I enjoyed it.
A+ for effort, holy shit. (Unless it’s generated lol)
I went back and forth with GPT-4 for a bit, but LLMs in my experience are terrible with comedy/satire, so I just used it to make a serious template and then took it from there
Good job it made me angry just reading it. Thank you for this shitpost :)

You being on blahaj zone makes you somewhat more special than Lemmy world users, but you’re nowhere near as important as me, running my own instance. While you’re afraid of the moderators and admins, I am the admin. Without other users on my instance only I am important.
Bow before me
But how do you know that you’ve won an argument if you don’t get banned instead of being replied to?

True, I like where this is going
but you’re nowhere near as important as me
Blocked
I didn’t realize what c/ i was in at first
Top tier shit post
It’s a pain in the ass to block all the lemmy users one by one. I’m trying to curate an experience where Lemmy is just about my posts and my comments. Like the gold standard of social media: myspace.
I’ve asked over and over for a “block every account except my own” and people just laugh at me.
You should probably just switch to the notes app.
Just spin up your own instance and don’t federate with any others! That’s the beauty of the fediverse, you can do stuff like that.
Too late you were already blocked.
As both of you should be.
A+ shitpost
A+ reply, thank you.
However, I’m getting ratioed here and that makes me upset. Please delete this comment 😤
You can’t get ratioed here, all shit opinions are equally valued on the front page
Great job op, took this seriously for way longer than I should have
Took me until “moderation” section, that was too much.
Great job op
Tysm
One can only be so turned on.
Never post this picture again please and thank you
It’s my humble opinion that I’m the humblest person in the world, and so I think I also deserve to be always treated like royalty on this platform >:(
One time, in middle school, we had to do this thing where we assign ourselves adjectives for each letter of our full name and read it aloud. My last name ends with an H, so I chose all haughty adjectives like
Great
Amazing
Rad
Yummy
And then ended my last name with
And most of all,
Humble
And fucking no one laughed
I’ll have you know, your joke was awesome
So true, why can’t I be worshipped as Lemmy’s one and only God?
But what about me being the centre of attention?
Y’all can take turns while I’m otherwise occupied
Mom said it’s my turn
Okay that’s fine I should be paying attention to these kids rn anyway
Gary.
Wait a minute
Edit: nvm I got your username confused with someone else and thought you knew me irl
Thank you
