I’ve received more positive interactions in the last month here on Lemmy and I ever did in my 12 years on Reddit. On Reddit I am generally too anxious to post shit or engage in any way which led me to live that lurk life. I’m sure more toxicity will come as the user base continues to grow but, for now, this place is pretty fuckin’ cool and I appreciate you all.
tbf compared to masto/“microblog fediverse”, the “threadiverse” barely had any culture beyond a few exceptions so this place is almost guaranteed to get “redditized” if you’re not on an instance that moderates with the same strictness you’d expect on masto (partly why i picked this instance among others)
i’ve seen my fair share of freeze-peach warriors in the comments here. all you have to do is to drop the word “defederation” anywhere and they’re all raging to “debate”
True. But there’s a sub selection of people who’ve come across to here and the influence of the wider fediverse too. So I wouldn’t say it’s a complete transplant.
