Anyone know where FlyingSquid went?
Anyone know where FlyingSquid went?
Dude was like a pillar of the lemmy community and I believe a mod as well. I haven't seen him in weeks. Hopefully he's doing ok.

You never know what's happening in folks' real life.
Real life happens, often so seriously and so fast that you don't have time or effort to post online for significant stretches.
Hell, he might even be in the hospital, he had a history of difficult medical issues.
We can always hope for the best of the folks we lose track of online, but it's not unlike that meme about your old gaming friends.
Here's hoping everything is going okay not just for @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world but for everyone who disappears from our community.
In case you missed it, he's fine, he's just not here.
?
Please take a second to browse !crtart@lemmy.world , it's topical =(
If I remember correctly, he moved to the UK relatively recently, and I believe I remember him later making some comment about it being important to get a job.
If that's correct, he may be busy with getting a job in a new country. If he does need to do that, probably best not to push him to sink time on modding, since I suspect that he may be pretty tied up; real-life stuff should probably take priority.
Ah yeah that's two life changes in one bundle. No doubt he's busy as shit. I'm glad to hear this.
Well, he moved here to the UK but we ain't eaten him or nuthin'.
That's an odd statement to make out of nowhere. What did you have him with?
Captain Blackadder did not eat this delicious plump-breasted pigeon flyingsquid
Then why is there a tentancle on your plate?
:(
Didn't they say they went out for cigarettes?
Interesting, he told me it was for milk.
Get out of that chair! You're not my real @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world! My real @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world is gonna be back any minute now and then you'll be out of here, Frank!!!
I think they went on walkabout. Last time I saw them was posting about European power outlets.
Probably enjoying some irl time.
Could have just taken a break from Lemmy to focus on life stuff. Those stats for comments and post in 1.8y takes a lot of time and energy.
Hope they are doing well also.
"How can anybody eat at a time like this? The FlyingSquid is missing! Bush, SEARCH PARTY of three!"
Dude escaped fasclsm! I am both proud and envious! God speed!
Know what. I was never a big fan of how they interacted and conducted themselves on Lemmy, but reading that gave me a little more respect for the guy.
This subject was brought up earlier this week on the Star Trek shitposting community that they frequented. No definitive answer.
It's been quite peaceful actually
Good? He was a huge asshole, who regularly banned people for disagreeing with him or his extreme bullshit views. He was also famous for trying to lord over people about being a mod if losing a discussion...
His instance .world has some strict/stupid rules, which he did enforce. I didn't like it either but instead of blaming the messenger I simply left .world.
No he would literally bias ban just like jonsjava and most of .world.
He wasn't just a messenger he would get into an argument, start to lose then ban and remove.
I hope they're ok like most people but they were kind of a petty asshole at times.
Lemmy is better without FS on it because FS made every topic either slightly better, or more toxic.
I blocked them a long time ago. I didn't even notice that they were gone.
Dude tried to ban me for saying Bibi was abusing the Jewish faith to genocide Muslims.
Idk about fuck him entirely, but I didn't need his Zionist ass in my feed.
I saw him post at least 1 comment yesterday, but has deleted it. 🤷🏻♂️
Anyone making 10 posts a day for over a year should probably definitely take a step back from lemmy
He joined in June '23 after the reddit API debacle, along with many of us. 4610 posts + 67178 comments over 20 months comes out to 120 posts and comments per day, every day, for over a year and a half. A true addict, one that puts the rest of us addicts to shame.
I have it on good authority that he's fine, he's just not here.
Do you have a picture of him with todays Wordle
He transformed into a squid and flew away from this wretched planet.
Probably on the way to Alpha Centauri on a Squid-Spaceship
🦑🚀🌌
Its probably better place than whatever this hellhole we live on. Perhaps, its a planet of Hyper-Intelligent Squid-People! (Squids are some of the smartest creatures, according to certain scientists, who knows what Earth could've been without Humans)
Maybe they'll even have their own Squid Game? 🤔
(Wait, what does a planet of Squids call their Squid Game? 🤔🤔🤔)
You made me wonder if all those people who believe aliens will come take them away are just hopeful to escape all the awful things on this planet. Cause I might join them.
Can jordenlund be next?
He made a comment a while back about some painful medical stuff. I wish him a swift recovery
a pillar of the lemmy community
A negative one that brought only Reddit energy and vibe to this place
Yeah I didn't know he was gone, I blocked him awhile ago for being a complete fucking dick.
Same. I contacted him during his recent online mental crisis. He never wrote back so I took a few minutes to check his post history to see if he was alive. Dude is toxic AF. I added him to my block list shortly thereafter.
FS was the most annoying reddit person on here, besides maybe PugJesus.
