Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Was creating a Philippine Lemmy community just an echo chamber? Most of us are anticipating on re-opening the sub than embracing the new platform we have right now.

Personally, I want to see a piece of artwork develop over time like I was watching a film "Finding Neverland" we may thought it is a magical world, but nope nope.

But damn, Lemmy minimizes my doom-scrolling I got from Reddit.

Ah basta, this place will live on. Just keep doing what you're doing. Start threads, comment, participate.

Hello, work week!

Having time to do things, surprisingly.

Probably tulog at maligo sa ulan.

Being able to commute to work without waking up very early.

Back in the early 2010s, kaya 1hour (7-8am) travel time from Paranaque to Mandaluyong. But now kapag 7am ka umalis, maswerte na 9am ka makarating sa pupuntahan mo.

Being Minimalist.

Wassup everyone, heard r/ph is back on but idgaf, not going back to Reddit so I'm staying here for reals,

Wag nyo raw iiwan si clintoy!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I feel like lemmy will be as big as reddit in a few years. Idk why pero for some reason lagi akong nauuna sa mga patok na apps bago sila sumikat. I was there on tiktok when numerical codes pa ang user ID. Nasa lazada na rin ako nung puro shady gadgets like ballpen with spy camera and audio recorder pa lang ang binebenta nila while only having 1 warehouse sa rizal area. Even on instagram nauna ako I was there before FB acquired IG. Looks like I'll be one of the pioneer users again in an upcoming unicorn app which is Lemmy.

I’m staying here. I don’t even have the official Reddit app on my devices. Apollo/RIF all the way!

EDIT: If Old Reddit dies which most users use it also, that can be the real protest.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm just curious. What will be the fate of our Lemmy page now that our subreddit has reopened?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

It's staying. Both as an active alternative and a fallback.

Some of the "regulars" here either left Reddit a long time ago or have no plans of coming back if it reopened anyway.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Bakit kaya open na uli? Di muna ako magpopost dun hanggang di ko alam kung bakit.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Definitely hindi kasi tinakot kami na mawawalan ng mod status. We never heard a peep from Reddit, lol.

Even if they did, I would gleefully tell them: "Good. Let's move along with that process, shall we?"

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's good to know. Although yun ang kinakalat ng mga Marites sa kabila.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (4 children)

That's actually decent in terms of rumors, haha. At least yan may resibo na nangyari sa ibang subs.

Yung mapapa-tambling ka talaga sa kung san lupalop nahukay is hindi daw Filipino mga mods (not true) and that the head mod was forcing us to hold out (also not true).

May poll daw na isasagawa on the future of the sub. Probably going the r/pics route. Assuming lang

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)

i've seen and heard of very dangerous liars pero ang pinakanakakatakot sa lahat yung mga nakabraces na nagsasabing regularly silang nakakapagfloss. tangina niyo wag ako imposible yan

So yeah, I woke up very early ulit clearly over thinking again, and I'm hoping na makatulog pa ako kasi I'll be likely having a long day today. Good mornight dearest strangers, and have a great week ahead! β™₯️ To end, pa mini omc lang ah? Kailangan lang, haha (skip na lang πŸ˜‚ ).

=

Ito siguro yung part ng buhay ko na napagdaanan niyo na (sakin kasi ngayon pa lang). Araw-araw lang kasi napapaisip ako bakit ba binigay 'tong taong 'to sa akin sa stage ng buhay ko ngayon? I've had countless nights this past year being not in my element. You know what, I'm still truly thankful, tbh. Kasi kung hindi dahil sa kanya, di ko malalaman na may ganito pala akong kapasidad magmahal.

I don't know if this person will just be a part of my journey or what, and if I still got some time left. What I know though, can be sum up to my all time favorite early 2ks song: 'Cause you bring out [back] the best in me, like no one else can do. That's why I'm by your side, and that's why I love you.

So yeah, wishing you the best everyday, all the time, whatever happens.

Halfway through the new Black Mirror season. I am trying to practice self-control by watching only an episode a day and I’ve been really committing to it. So far,

spoiler2nd and 3rd are standing out for me. First one was kinda Nosedive. 2nd one was new for me. It was like a horror and the last horror-ish they did was Playtest. 3rd one was really harsh. I was expecting Josh’s character would kill Aaron’s character while he was in the replica. But what happened was so much better. So far, it’s has been sooo much better than s5. I am hoping for things to get even better from here.

This was like Election 2022 when many kakampinks jumpshipped to r/ph 'cause "di toxic, at walang peknews." Napaka-mindful raw mga Redditors. And now that sub is filled with excessive, lazy screencapped socmed dramas lol

Ask /c/ph: Gamers, what's an upcoming game you're most hyped up for?

Mine's Dragon's Dogma 2. Been waiting for that shit for almost 10 years.

Nanood ako ng Barbie movie productions sa youtube. Ang ganda ginawa ng designers ang background at props so pinkeh 🩷.
