When I first started using Lemmy it seemed like such a nice place with interesting discussions. It seemed like the first group of people to join after the app exodus were being quite careful to be respectful of the existing culture.
Now, it seems as though the culture from Reddit has completely replaced it. Toxicity and all. I will say I do follow a lot of communities from a wide range of instances so it’s clearly not everywhere.
Am I the only one who’s feeling like we’ve just stormed in and bulldozed Lemmy?
I came to Lemmy from reddit and I find it an incredibly nice place to be, full of polite discussions and fun posts. I haven’t seen any of what you’re saying.
I agree. Came from reddit in June. Lemmy has been a very friendly place. I just posted for advice with a typo in the title. Noone even mentioned it. No belittling advice or bickering. Just kindness and helpfulness.
Did the same and was helpfully informed that unlike Reddit, you can edit the title if there’s a typo in it :)
Firefish is also incredibly sweet. Honestly the fediverse makes me feel good about the Internet for the first time in years.
same i suppose
I did see some anti Islam memes on the atheist community but that’s not really unexpected, they’re anti all religion.
“We’re egalitarians, we hate all of you equally!”
I disagree with you in a snide and condescending tone while missapropriating your argument.
Let’s fight.
