I don’t know anyone besides myself that even uses social media IRL.

What’s the lemmy version of “the narwhal bacons at midnight”?

I do. But despite my best efforts at explaining and advertising this platform, none of my friends seem to care 🥲.

idk a redditor, let alone a lemming

As long as it’s small there is no interest in meddling and control by the regime.
Afte witnessing the evolution of so-called ‘moderation’ and the inherent bias it entails I can say I prefer free speech with all the insults and whatever comes with it over the shithole that Reddit has become.
Deleted commments, banned or ghostbanned for the slightest and bots bots bots.

Guy from work posted a Lemmy meme link.

I look in the mirror every morning and yell at that fucking idiot who uses Lemmy. It’s my favorite time of the day. :)

Yep couple people.

I wouldn’t be surprised to find a friend, a cousin, and a friend’s husband- just because they’re all 3 smart, techish, liberal, and news aware.

I don’t even know anyone who uses BlueSky and that’s considerably more trendy lately. Granted, most of my contacts are 20 something college girls so it’s pretty much TikTok as far as the eye can see.

Nobody is real here, man

Not really, but I found out about lemmy and the Fediverse one week ago. I already told about it to 2 people, maybe if you ask me again in a couple of weeks the answer may be different

Me, myself, and I

I do not know and will never try to find out.

Nope
