I mean. It’s a fun show and all but this meme places us as the murderous megalomaniac, literally one of the worst people on the planet.

Yeah we don’t relate to that asshole.
Maybe Butcher. He has his own issues, of course, but then so do we.
We're all Hughies that think they're Butcher and could never land Annie.
I didn't really notice until now but The Boys have the classic 4-man personality spread.
Lol maybe. Sometimes I’d say we have a lot of Lamplighters.
But the truth is I never put much stock in the which-character-are-you personality quizzes and, statistically-speaking, I’d wager we have every possible personality type covered.
The 4-man spread is less about covering all personalities and more about ensuring your favorite projection target has more than just one detail you relate to, I think.
Makes sense. A story has legs if any reader can find themselves in it.

I think it was called digg?
Edit: I mean this as a glib ignorance of reddit and wanted to look it up for the nostalgia, but holy shit they're relaunching digg!!!
not again no
Fark.com somehow still exists
r$ddit will still exist for at least another 80 years bc there's always the chance someone will be like: "what was the name of that place I had that conversation on once...? let's see if it's still there..."
I would like Reddit to be around forever because of all the good answers from people over the years for different issues, but that's already been heavily damaged by mods, admins and people using bots to turn all their old comments to gibberish. I hate that actually valuable information is being lost because of ego and greed.
Not lost. Many have old database replicas for offline queries, including me.

Definitely an upgrade, just moved from Reddit to Lemmy, I already like the community and the UI here, plus the fact that it cannot be bought or owned by billionaires.
Welcome! We've got memes on deck at !memes@lemmy.world and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got !programmer_humor@programming.dev to scratch that itch and be sure to drop a shit(post) off at !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world or if you want SCIENCE and memes head over to the wonderful !science_memes@mander.xyz or if you just want regular SCIENCE mander.xyz is full of sciency comms like !science@mander.xyz and !astronomy@mander.xyz . !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone is also nice this time of year, but you'll have to post before you can leave.
We're not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably theTankies, but here they're mostly on the Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. With a .world instance account you only have to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you'd rather just not deal with them

Same, the only thing I'm fighting is the muscle memory of typing in reddit in the url lol. Weening myself off and coming over to Lemmy and it's like a breath of fresh air.
Welcome! In a bit, you'll be like me and would look for /c/ even when going back on Reddit.
Welcome!
Are we the baddies?
They both are. And it kinda works for Lemmy.world given that they're closer to Reddit than any other instance as far culture goes.
See? You're allowed to say that here
Welcome to Lemmy, it's nice to have you!
Are we Homelander in this?
Definitely. I joined reddit in 2019 because I like the focus on communities and that reddit was almost uncensored. But since the censorship hat drastically increased since then, I left the platform now. And so far, I like it here
Welcome! Yea, IMO Lemmy is kinda like how Reddit was a decade ago, but the light touch means that there's also some problematic parts. Probably the biggest issue is the tankies, but if you want to just avoid them you can do an instance block of The Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, hexbear.net and lemmygrad.ml. Though I think your instance already defed's from Hex and grad. that'll take care of the bulk of em.

Thanks man. I already joined most of them. And yes, these communities are automatically blocked. But I find it wild that the instance hosted by the developers requires users to copy a part "The Principles of Communism" into the application. I subsequently did not create my account there

You don't want Jensen Ackles to represent the "bad" choice.
I mean, he's an analogy for Jim Crow America that didn't do as much to beat the Nazis as it pretends... But yes, still probably better than Homelander.
You are of course correct wrt Soldierboy. But, forgive my fangirling, I'm talking about Jensen specifically, not the character :)

Ummm, reddit was a blatant knockoff of DIGG, until they sold out and where is DIGG now?

Lmao their big new idea is incorporating AI based moderation.
"I know what will bring them back!"- The most clueless person in existence
Reddit seemed much more like a Hacker News/Slashdot interface in the early days. They were different from each other in 2005 but slowly started to coalesce into some common features that the other had first. Reddit had robust comments and threading (which I personally consider to be the defining feature), while digg version 2 had categories/tags. Reddit adopted subreddits and Digg adopted comments sometime in 2006 or so.
Digg was the site that originally popularized up-votes and down-votes that are so typical on online posts today. But, despite Digg's pioneering introduction of this feature to internet culture it was the very up-votes and down-votes that led to its downfall in the first place.
Digg was the site that originally popularized up-votes and down-votes that are so typical on online posts today.
No. Slashdot was doing that, and was popular before Digg launched. Reddit also launched before Digg was popular, about 6 months after Digg did.
Meanwhile, algorithms that ranked content based on user votes were taking over all the web 2.0 darlings, including Flickr's "interestingness" ranking system, by the mid 2000's. Even outside of ordering comment threads, silicon valley was enamored with the idea of crowdsourcing indicators of popularity, and building algorithms around star ratings (including offline stuff like Netflix's DVD by mail, OkCupid's matching ratings for online dating, etc.)
I see Digg's use of voting as merely reflective of the overall trends in the mid-2000's. They certainly didn't invent it.
including offline stuff like Netflix’s DVD by mail, OkCupid’s matching ratings for online dating
And they worked, but too damn well to actually weasel marketing into

It's a lemming, damn you.
Are you sure it’s not a rat?
Lemming is crazy piglet rat. Guinea pig is friendly piglet fat rat. Squirrel is tree rat. Beaver is tooth rat. Hamster is ping pong ball rat. Porcupine is pin cushion rat.
