have any niche lemmings taken off in the 6 months since the API scandal?

    I’m not sure what you’re asking. Do you mean Lemmy communities, Lemmy instances, or something else?

      This confused me, too. I generally see"Lemming" used as the equivalent of “Redditor”: someone who uses Lemmy.

          You took a good teaching opportunity and made yourself look 1,000 times dumber.

          How about getting off your high horse and try helping people learn instead of insulting people to sooth your superiority complex.

            I am helping people learn. Using the term Lemmings makes you look stupid. Using the term Lemming incorrectly makes you look REALLY fucking stupid.

              Then explain what OP did wrong, in a non-derogatory way, give them alternatives to what they could say instead of just demeaning them.

              Know what makes people look REALLY REALLY dumb? Talking down to people that don’t know better. Besides if you’re so smart, why don’t you educate the ignorant without insulting them?

                It’s more fun this way. Plus it looks like it pisses dweebs like you off, so win/win.

                  Lol @ using that mental gymnastic to pretend you won an argument. People say don’t feed the trolls but if nobody gave the monkeys peanuts they wouldn’t dance like fools for our amusement.

                  You’re welcome, monkey.

                    Mental gymnastics? What are you even talking about? I got to call a stupid thing stupid and pissed an asshole idiot like you off which makes me happy. And now you’re pretending like there’s some sort of win on your end because you allowed me to rile you up? There’s definitely some sort of attempt at mental gymnastics going on here, but it’s from your end and it’s a massive failure.
