It really feels like Lemmy is alive because of you.

When I first checked out Lemmy, I wasn’t expecting there to be so much content, so much discussion, and so much community. But I’ve spent the better part of two days glued to my screen, browsing content all day. I’ve seen so many posts, so many interesting discussions about the fediverse, and of course, plenty of memes. It really feels like the start of something incredible.

I’ve gotta get back to work soon, but wow. I think this whole fediverse thing really is the next step for social media. If I find some extra time, I’ll definitely consider contributing to Lemmy’s source code to help this project and the FOSS ecosystem grow.

      Yup. Beans and poop. Quite frankly I’m not interested in either of those topics!

        You should expand your horizons! Beans just come in so many variants. You got baked beans, half baked beans, twice baked beans (and so on), Lima beans, string beans, chili beans, things that look like beans but aren’t (looking at you, peanuts are a legume), and the list goes on!

          I guess I have a semi related question. It seems that canned baked beans are a staple for people in the UK. They even have it on toast of all things. Do canned baked beans taste different in the UK than they do in the US or are they the same? I’m in the US and I think they taste disgusting, but I wonder if they have a different flavor in the UK.

            Basically yes they’re very different. I saw a discussion earlier about which brands in the US are comparable, but god knows which of today’s 7000 bean-related threads it was in!

              This is interesting and something I had always suspected. Now I want to know what UK baked beans taste like and if they don’t taste like shit lol.
