(You don’t have to put their @, just say yes or no if you want.)
I got permission from her, so my GF is @PieInTheSky@feddit.online
Lemmy, but very rarely
💓❤️💞
Welcome!
Thank you!
We run quite a few fediverse instances together, so yes :)
Nah our ideals are very different
Yep
Nope, my wife uses Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Discord.
Can’t get her to adopt Fediverse equivalents.
I’d say I choose quality over quantity, but she mostly is in artist communities that don’t want to move off the old platforms. They say they were there before the crazies, they aren’t the problem, so they’re not gonna move, even if the people who own those platforms are straight up fascists. I couldn’t do it.
Yep. My partner is basically the same as yours here. Too many niche communities on other social media and unwilling to give it up in spite of the ideological issues.
I think it’s just harder for some than others. I was never THAT attached to social media anyway so…this is fine for me. If I run out of content on my feed for the day its probably time to log off anyway
Cries in doesn’t have a significant other
wife followed me to signal, reddit -> lemmy, and linux.
She got there on linux before me when her win 7 computer broke down and I reanimated her old laptop with linux (although a light version of ubuntu) I’ll be joining her soon; if you want me to use something debian based that isn’t Ubuntu studio, hit me up with recs in this thread : https://lemmy.world/post/35450797?scrollToComments=true
Spouse is on Linux, but because one by one her devices started to switch. Setting up a new gaming pc, oh that’s weird it has Linux. Setting up the new gaming console, and it has bazzite. Suddenly they’re only using linux
How do you guys manage to make a relationship work on different instances?
Everyone that isn’t on piefed.world is a fascist commie far-right tankie heathen.
Just reading your comments I know what the user name will be, keep it up my good fellow
What?
Can’t say my instance is any of that.
Honestly I rarely found any fellow instance user to be pretty logical
Yep, but not on Lemmy. She uses Mastodon.
I got her on Reddit ages ago but I think she stopped using it because the official app sucks so much. I don’t think she’s interested anymore though. Instagram mostly.
Significant other?
no.
No, but she “stalks” me here sometimes to see what I’m up to and I appreciate it, lol.
No, the fedi is still mostly tech/privacy enthusiasts which doesn’t really describe her.
Is it though? I see a lot more non-tech people there day by day. Lemmy might be more niche cause of network effects
