Sbubbies are images in which the text of a logo has been cleanly edited to read something different.

We've altered our ruleset a bit from the subreddit, and these may change at short notice as we acclimate to Lemmy.

Tildes is really a great place. But it being invite only was probably the worst thing for it if it wanted growth. People couldn't get on Tildes so they came to places like Lemmy or Kbin or one of the others.

I think it's also bad if you're looking for unbiased opinion. Making it invite only might as well be a way to speedrun the creation of a filter bubble.

Many social networks started as invite only precisely to make users desire it even more. It's often used as a marketing strategy.

That being said, even if it's fun and great and all, I dislike this strategy so much I'm not ever joining. Lemmy being open in most meanings of the world is better.

Just email the guy. I got an invite after 3 days after asking for one.

I have been in for a month. I was more talking about other folks who want to get in. A single person managing the entire access manually is not a great approach.

Damn really? I emailed him during the reddpocolypse; must've been lucky I guess. But yeah for sure I feel you. Also Tildes is the same as Reddit and Squabbles, centralized. I wished that RIF was coming here instead though, it was the only way for me to use reddit.
