Ask Lemmy

These guys under obvious joke meme posts.

A good number of them seem to be trying to import reddit into Lemmy wholesale.

The FOSS crowd is incredibly cringey and annoying

Lack of reading comprehension in political topics.

Not enough of them to build fun and meaningful conversations

do we count the shitty x-post bots with 1 upvote and 0 comments spamming otherwise dead communities

Lemmygrad and HexBear have some of the most obnoxious losers I've ever seen and I never had this issue with reddit.

Probably the fact that people here seem to bond over the mutual hatred of outgroups/people rather than over the interest in similar things.

The quite heavy left bias shows also.

They're still too much like reddit users.

People still make AcHUalLY comments here. That crap is annoying.

It's just so dry on here. So far I check in every so often just to see what's up but you can never shake the fact that Reddit has the reach and the history. Sadly I still suffer the Reddit mobile experience here and there, but I mostly just use other apps now. Lemmy just isn't close yet and the whole decentralized thing is beyond confusing for new users, I hate how many accounts I need to create.

Plus the delay to the content is huge, it's like 2 days behind the freshest news articles and discussions and stuff, and the meme content is super dated

They are all so nice that I feel I have to be nice too.

People thinking the Reddit community is so much worse than Lemmy, like they didn't just come from there themselves and used to be part of it.

I really like lemmy. A lot of people with similar interests as me here.

Seeing a lot of complaints about controversial communities, but I for one actually like them. I like the entertainment value of the drama, arguments, and trolling.

I am sick of people removed about these instances. If you don't like their content then join an instance that is defederated from them. It's that simple.

Same redditors with toxic echochamber you are trying to avoid you find them here too. They think their political identity is all that matters.

Too many reddit users have muddied the waters.

On first checking things out, I loved how the nasty responses common in reddit threads was very rare here. Arguments here are commonly well thought out and give the benefit of the doubt. As more redditers switch over, they're bringing the vitriol with them.

Also posting article links from Reddit. I prefer when the poster writes their own synopsis of what the article is about and why it's important. Links from Reddit tend to just repost the click bait garbage from over there.

It's annoying how most Lemmy users strut around like they have flavorful, pristine cocks and/or meaty, robust vulvas. Stop being so constructive and fight me.
