Kendrick calling Drake a pedophile

It's not like Reddit stopped existing. Lemmy will (hopefully) never be Reddit. That means that some itches Reddit will still have to scratch.
I haven't been in the loop since 2016.
I used to interact with people from my country on reddit
Because of that, along with me not watching/reading romanian news, i miss big events like the country being invited to schengen
Wouldn't that be at least on [email protected] ?
Yes, it was. It was all over lemmy for several days.
DAE died a violent death on reddit years ago. I was there. I remember the backlash.
Let's not revive it here. This place is special.
I haven't followed pop culture since about 1985. I've never heard of Kendrick or Drake (apart from Sir Francis Drake and Nick Drake, and of course you can't mean either of them, given they died in 1596 and 1974 respectively).
I like it here, not least because I understand a lot more of the things people talk about than I ever did on Reddit. Perhaps the users here tend to be older on average, I don't know. There are certainly fewer people than over there, and that must account for some of the differences in content scope.

Iโve never wanted to be in it.
I wonder if there should be a more generic pop-culture discussion thread to get it started. I know I enjoy a few aspects of pop-culture and would like to discuss. If you start it people will join
This is what I'm kind of thinking too, like a r/popculture chat, but less related to celebrities and more about general non-political happenings. Maybe I'll message my instance admin and see what hosting something like that entails.

I don't feel out of it, but I also use tiktok, ig reels (suprisingly amazing algorithim, least controversial, my 3d edm visual profile (amateur af) only sees 3d and edm reels for the most part, doesn't really favor low follower counts but its great for popular stuff.
I miss old twitter, wondering if any mastodon or pleroma instance is like that. Sharkey seems more tumblr ppls vibe. It was always current and fun to talk in.
Reddits out of it forsure, ppl can identify a redditor and its never a compliment lol. I always hated when ppl called me on, but they were spot on. Lemmy's not too bad, ppl just dont seem to care about pop culture here, might be due to lack of communities or posters, gotta be the change you want to see in growing communities like this.
I need to start posting more stuff on the edm ones, I feel out of the loop there and want them to be as active as reddit was.

Yeah, but every time I hear about celebrity shit it's fucking stupid and it pisses me off so I consider missing it a good thing.
