I think my favorite thing about Lemmy is that it feels like Reddit used to. Less negativity, more engaged users (I think). I know it will be fun to watch Reddit die, but if I put spite aside what Iโ€™m really mad at Reddit about is more about what Reddit became and maybe part of that is when the general internet user started going to Reddit and it became less like the small community it was years ago. Feel free to disagree or share an argument ๐Ÿ˜‰

Not really, I miss having niche communities that were populated. I get where you're coming from, but I think more warm bodies around here will be a good thing.

Yes - very much so.

This feels like a community of actual people who can and do actually think and engage.

Reddit felt like a vast sea of idiots, trolls, shills snd bots.
