What are some Redditisms that Lemmy needs to avoid?

nyternic@lemmy.world to Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world – 212 points –

For example, people on Reddit asking redundant questions and give equally redundant or unhelpful answers.

Whenever every 'What's the worst show you've seen?' is asked, you'll get 10,000 "Kardashians" answers, which is just easy karma farming.

If someone posts in a community that's geared for something like opinions, but someone elects to just go on a full scale rant instead.

There's a difference between politics and hate speech I'd say. Politics sure ok. Ad hominem attacks and hate speech should be removed imo. Additionally, if a thread is becoming too hostile, sometimes locking it down is just a good thing to do before things get worse.

Totally agree. The thing is it's a thin line between identifying hate speech and disagreement. Some people (mods) confuse the two. Moderating well is a tough job.
