What does Lemmy do better than Reddit?
Just found this space, I'm trying to play around with this platform. Can anyone help to explain?

Last night I made a post on c/asklemmy and that post now has 200 upvotes and a bunch of engagement.
On Reddit, that post would've been removed for some stupid reason or no engagement whatsoever.
Reddit also has a stupid algorithm thing and I could never find the posts from communities I subscribed to on my feed leaving many posts lost.
Serioulsy, Reddit has a moderation problem. Posts get removed all the time by powertripping mods.
Gotta third this. I had actually forgotten how bad it was till this was mentioned because it never happens on Lemmy. Love that. I had a few posts removed for accidentally missing an obscure rule on Reddit. Do not miss.
Unfortunately, it still happens even here on Lemmy. I don't think we see it as much because most communities here have far fewer mods than adjacent Reddit subs on average, but occasionally you'll find a mod here who thinks they know better than their community and does whatever they feel like.
The one about regret buying, right? I've seen it.
It would be worse: people would assume that you're a Nazi because you're criticising consumption.
