Is there a sub for ama’s aka ‘ask me anythings’? If not where do people post them?

    They’re called communities on Lemmy, not subs. And if there isn’t one yet, feel free to make one! This platform is young still, and needs people to start filling the void.

      They’re the same thing, it’s fine.

      I know you’re right, but I’m willing to let the use of sub slide, because we all know what it means and community is such a long word.

        And this place is designed to be a clone of reddit so it seems dumb to be bothered by someone using reddit terminology here.

          It is common amongst cloned software projects to completely rename a lot of the original software’s terminology.

          Don’t know if you’re joking but this is not supposed to be a clone of reddit. I’m not bothered really I was just being nitpicky. I mean, of it’s all the same, may as well use the right word.

            Then why does it have almost identical features/layout/intentions? It’s for people to switch to.

              No it’s not a replacement fabricated for that purpose. It looks similar because the structure is a sensible one that makes sense for its design. It has no relationship to Reddit other than the fact that it’s a good alternative.

                It fits what was said then. It is, as you said, an alternative.

                  Yes an alternative. One of a few but arguably the one with the most potential. It’s just you seemed to imply it was an intended replacement, that’s all. No sweat.

                    I mean it is, because many/most of us came here because of the nonsense Reddit was pulling. You don’t imitate the structure if you’re not offering an alternative to those people.
