Damn, you cold as ice.
I feel like half the posts immediately break a community rule.
At least half
Look man if we weren't idiots we'd already have the answers
it took me a minute, so it checks out
Though it has been dead for two years. Maybe you can be the person to start posting and bring it back to life.
I'd follow that comm if it had activity
Ah yes the Catch 22 of Lemmy. The only way to get activity is to already have it.

I mean... Are we against bots xposting content from reddit that bad?
Could spark up some communities with giving reddit the traffic.
I’ve been missing my towns local communities but not enough to visit Reddit. I’d be really happy if they were cross-posted to Lemmy, even if that means there would be no one to see anything I post
The activity could draw more users in to post more too.
I have things I want to post often but lots of dead or non-existent communities
yeah this^
Just look for hexbear or lemmy dot ml communities.
Yeah... Is there a way to transfer a user account?
Is there a reason to transfer it, really? Just create a new one on another instance. I mean, here's my first account: https://feddit.org/u/Tuuktuuk , because I didn't know about Lemmy when I joined it, but then figured that a German-language instance is a bit of a bad idea for a Finn. And now I'm on Sopuli.
Is there something about your current account thar really requires you to transfer the account? (And, for what I know: I don't think there is a transfer functionality of any kind.)
I’m not sure about dedicated communities but you can find me posting almost everywhere. Idiot comes to you.
!insanepeoplefacebook@lemmy.world for better clickability
Almost all of this is sovcit posts which kind of blurs the line of "funny crazy" and "legit not funny and needs mental health assessment and assistance"
So you're saying that the community needs a wider variety of posts. I agree.
!reddit@lemmy.world ?
j/k
Guess I'm the idiot. What's wrong with the picture? Looks like their boat was wrecked and they're trying to get it on the beach.
it's going to roll over when a couple good waves hit it. plus their lines are so loose, the boat moving could trap someone with a line that suddenly goes tight with all the weight of the boat. if their not trying to make it pointed at the beach fore or aft, they probably have a bad day
By the tension on the line, it looks like they're ready to yank it straight, perpendicular to the shore. 🤷🏻
Obviously
An object that size has person-killing force when pushed by even a small, mild wave.
WCGW asking idiots about idiots. (just kidding)
There are some politics subs which feature a lot of idiots.
Luckily folks have given you some answers so I don't need to look through my block list.
You can create it!
Feel free to create a community on my instance redlemmy
