To me it feels like a matured Reddit. (At least most of the time šŸ™ƒ)

Thatā€™s unfortunate, because itā€™s the opposite of my experience. Maybe I just donā€™t care, and/or Iā€™ve gotten better at spotting the warning signs of trivial bullshit and then ignoring it.

The trolls feel like insecure outsiders who havenā€™t matured enough to ā€œgetā€ Lemmy. Itā€™s like they know they arenā€™t taken seriously, and want the imaginary clout they had on Reddit.

I get that, and I do my best not to feed the trolls, but it feels like theyā€™ve been growing since I first joined. But just because I ignore it doesnā€™t mean I donā€™t notice it.

Iā€™ve seen more sealioning than simple trolling. Sometimes, I canā€™t resist replying, because Iā€™m not sure if theyā€™re genuinely seeing things differently, or just because their games annoy me.
