Hey, I hope it’s ok to post something like this here. I just wanted to say thanks for the people here^^ A long time ago I joined Reddit and tried to post, comment and communicate about stuff I liked. Only now I noticed how much I became a lurker over the time because of the negativity at Reddit. Snappy comments, no real feedback but hate, sometimes even borderline insults… After nuking and deleting my Reddit account and switching to lemmy I noticed how much I missed it. People here are way more friendly and communicate politely. At least for now… Posting is fun again, all thanks to you all^^ That’s my two cents. Thanks for reading. Love you all, keep safe. Cheers
yep I liken reddit recently to sitting on a park bench alone, shouting your ideas to the ether and the only replies you get are passerbys that want to tell you you are wrong (often in immense detail). It used to be you could have discussion, like you might have sitting round the break room at work or in bar with friends, a bunch of like minded people on a topic.
