A good URL is extremely important for growth. But I wouldn’t say unfortunately, as I don’t think sh.itjust.works users have any desire to become a very large server. We seem to thrive as a smaller, more tight-knit community.
That’s the beauty of the fediverse, whether you’re on the largest or the smallest server, you are basically accessing the same content. The rapid growth of lemm.ee benefits all of us.

Remarkable growth in the past week, and indeed past 3 months. Thank you for providing the stats.
Lemm.ee and sh.itjust.works had been similar in size for most of 2024 (2500-3500 MAUs), but you’re now nearly twice our size.
It’s really nice to see this kind of growth because it’s steadily decreasing the overall share of the Lemmy userbase on lemmy.world and therefore increasing the stability of the network. There had been worries that lemmy.world would steadily increase its share of the userbase and become a single point of failure, but that seems increasingly unlikely.
Lemm.ee has always been a well-run server with great performance and an excellent admin and it’s great to see that new users are choosing the option that will give them the best possible version of what Lemmy can offer.

- Comment on [Discussion] Which movie trailers were the most deceptive regarding the actual content of the movie? 1 month ago:
Kangaroo Jack
Kangaroo Jack’s premise, trailer, and commercials promise little more than the spectacle of two enthusiastic actors being kicked over and over again by a sassy, computer-animated kangaroo—and, sadly, the film fails to deliver even that.

Meh you still need basic social skills. Even for a nepotistic job, you have to be socially aware enough to pretend that you do something. Otherwise the contacts who gave you the job are going to be pissed off about you embarrassing them.

He sold last year, he’s no longer involved afaik

I feel so bad for you, my condolences.
That’s exactly what I was thinking as a Knicks fan, like we gave 5 firsts for Mikal and it only takes ONE for fucking Doncic??? He’s a 25 year old walking triple double, perennial MVP candidate.
And of course it had to be the Lakers who get another franchise player for the next decade basically for free. Fuck sake.

Or course, which is why I didn’t even dare suggest he was a GOAT candidate. Just pointing out homerism when I see it

I’m assuming this has something to do with you being Dutch. But otherwise that was a nice joke, 5/7

Lmao no fucking chance but I respect the fanboy in you.
As a Knicks fan I remember years of people claiming Frank Ntilikina was going to be a future All Star just as soon as he got his shot right.
Career 36.9 FG% 😭

This dude is from another planet, confirmed.
Btw if you go to the other place you can usually find a streamable.com link of the highlights. Then just copy the link and post it here. ESPN has the worst video player of all time
- Comment on Are NBA broadcasts too brightly lit? 2 months ago:
Yeah probably. Sometimes I’ll tune into a game and it almost seems washed out, like the colors don’t pop out because everything is so overwhemlinly bright.
But also there’s bigger issues with the game itself that cause the games to feel more bland and like they carry less weight. And on top of that, when Curry and LeBron retire I think the NBA will continue to see declining viewership. The current superstars don’t seem to have the same star power.
- Comment on Anon fixes Super Mario Bros 2 months ago:
Oh, I dunno about any of the newer Mario games, I was just taking people’s word for it.
I was agreeing with the way that successful brands/IP tend to get milked to death by business types long after the creative types have moved on. But tbf I think Nintendo is one of the few corporations where they have been able to maintain the creative vitality of their franchises for 30+ years, they may be an exception to that rule. Especially with Mario and Zelda, they continued to make great games long after the original creative teams were gone.
But still, all it takes is a few dumbass MBAs to ruin great things by driving away the people who make the magic happen.
- Comment on Anon fixes Super Mario Bros 2 months ago:
These guys own the rights to call it “Mario,” but if they weren’t making games where you can turn Mario into an elephant, they could be just as [miserable] making sweat pants with writing on the ass.
FTFY. But also nice one, I loled. And you’re totally right about what you’re saying too.
- Comment on Should Stephen Curry move on from the Warriors? 2 months ago:
There’s no way they could afford that, but it would be absolutely awesome to watch
- Comment on Should Stephen Curry move on from the Warriors? 2 months ago:
Better for his legacy to stay with the Warriors. Being a career one team player is basically unheard of in the modern NBA. And winning 4 chips for that team is pretty good too.

He’s a machine built by aliens to play basketball. That’s the most logical explanation at this point.
- Comment on Kawhi Leonard is stepping away from the Clippers to be with his family who were forced to evacuate their homes due to the LA fires. 2 months ago:
Stepping away? He hasn’t played all season. Also the Clippers literally play in LA and their next three games are at home. This dude is something else.
That being said, thoughts and prayers 🙏
- Comment on Cavs top Thunder in the best game of the season so far 2 months ago:
Yeah fair, it’s definitely still very important. I may just be coping as a Knicks fan but I also expect their three point shooting to normalize by the end of the season. They’re shooting 40.5% from three as a team. Look at these three point percentages compared to their career averages.
Mitchell - Career 36.9% > This season 41.0% Garland - 38.9% > 42.9% LeVert - 34.7% > 44.5% Mobley - 30.3% > 40.4% Okoro - 35.7% > 47.6%
On the other hand, Strus, Merrill, and Niang are pretty close or below their career averages. Maybe they’re just moving the ball so well that they’re getting great looks, but my intuition is that the threes will stop dropping at some point this season.
Definitely a really fun team and story to watch as a neutral, but unfortunately I can’t quite enjoy it because they’re standing in the way of the Knicks making it out of the East this year.

Cavs are way better than anyone expected this year. Both teams still have plenty to prove when playoffs come around though, regular season doesn’t mean that much in the NBA
- Comment on Clippers’ Kawhi Leonard to make season debut after missing first 34 games 2 months ago:
My man’s injury history reads like War and Peace. Seems like hasn’t ever been healthy since he was on the Spurs. And even then he would always miss random games.
