  • Come Nerevar, friend or traitor, come. Come and look upon the Heart and Akulakahn, and bring Wraithguard, I have need of it. Come to the Heart chamber, I wait for you there, where we last met, countless ages ago. Come to me through fire and war, I welcome you! Welcome Moon-and-Star, I have prepared a place for you! Come, bring Wraithguard to the Heart chamber, together, let us free the cursed false gods! Welcome Nerevar, together we shall speak for the law and the land and drive the mongrel dogs of the Empire from Morrowind! Is this how you honor the 6th house and the tribe unmourned? Come to me openly, and not by stealth. Dagoth Ur welcomes you Nerevar, my old friend… but to this place where destiny is made, why have you come unprepared? Welcome, Moon-and-Star, to this place where YOUR destiny is made. What a fool you are, I’m a god! How can you kill a god? What a grand and intoxicating innocence! How could you be so naive? There is no escape, no recall or intervention can work in this place! Come! Lay down your weapons! It is not too late for my mercy…










  • Well, I am not fully in agreement there as I myself came here due to those restrictions but that is mostly because I primarily interact with reddit through boost and having it just suddenly get cut off was pretty shity. Not wanting to move platforms doesn’t really come with the same assessment of the person as you are saying. This is on top of API restrictions being something annoying to me as a scientists so I’m happy to not bother much with reddit anymore.

    I think the issue is far more related to the other channels which pull in members. Lemmy users are probably more likely to be those who are either hobby enthusists in self hosting, people who are strong pro piracy supporters, people from political extremists groups (in particular leftists groups due to the history of the platform), or those from marginal communities. You also have the big group of people who were barred from other platforms, like the API restriction or the far worse group of people banned from reddit which people will post about proudly regardless of if that ban was reasonable or not.

    I like Lemmy a lot, but it’s like any indi space, both filled with great unique things and things that make me want to travel the Australian outback without gas or water.
