When I was on Reddit I felt like my opinion didn’t matter. But here it just feels more open and free.

    Deleted My reddit account , tried all of the fediverse before but always went back to propriety for same reason as anyone else. Everyone is there. With the Reddit exodus I feel this will get the push it needs

    Every comment I would make on Reddit seemed to get challenged by someone looking to start a long-winded argument as they were, in fact, the main character of the universe.

    I like it here because so far, people are nice. It’s like the first day of high school and everyone just wants to be friends and meet people.

      I feel like your characterization of Reddit users as long-winded and contrarian is inaccurate and frankly offensive. Let me write you several paragraphs about why you’re wrong, sprinkled with thinly veiled personal insults and outright harsh commentary about you as a person.

      Sorry, just trying to make it feel like our old home :)

    This is my second comment since joining this morning, so yes, significantly more active.

    i feel most of the people that actually made the jump to lemmy are the more mature and calmer crowd as compared to your average Redditor

      This is an incorrect assessment of the facks. I believe it to be the same people that hate reddit for banning them…and me. You know… Good people 😁. People who like and say weird shit. People who find useful ways to use reddit…and then reddit finds out it’s useful and replaces you with a bot or someone else…

      Reddit’s modo should be “build our communities! And get the fuck out! They’re our communities!”

      I am the former admin for r/keitruck and r/Seattlegay. One day I started to notice hate messages. I might have replied. Then I noticed a deluged of that until one morning I got a message saying I was banned. I spent all my fun pandemic free time building those two places. So fuck reddit.
