Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️
An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭
Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Sayang at medyo late ko na nalaman mga MLM or I would have been able to warn my coworkers/friends. Literally 95% of the entire office invested on another coworker who claimed that with his elite dev skills, he can accurately predict how stocks work and could double your profit. Naniwala naman sila kasi may return (that was revealed to be him just taking money from newer investors) so they kept pouring more money into it, reaching to their college savings, bank accounts, and other friends.
Nalaman na lang nila something was awry nung wala na pera nabibigay sa kanila (no more new recruits in conjunction with the guy losing a huge chunk of money to vices) and he ultimately didn't show up for work and went on the run.
