I feel like Fediverse users are nicer to each other and more generous with upvotes than reddit.

i’m doing it because I want to make the fediverse more friendly place, in hopes of making it more welcoming for new users, and the nicer place in general. But I wonder how much is just less bots.

Then you haven't posted enough and/or love the "herd mentality" -- it's my 1 month in and I already been massively downvoted twice by randoms with multiple accounts.

In my experience it depends strongly on the comunity. Those meme comunitys are on their way to become reddit two, command wise. But most communities that are made to have a discussion have been realy nice so far.

Um....it actually happened on non-"meme communities". Can't mention their names for obvious reasons, but yeah.

can't mention their names

I don't blame you for not wanting to name-drop but ya know people can see your post history?

There is a major difference between checking my post history for "culprits" and me saying it out loud who did what and who did not. :^)

Tbh these instances feel alot more like an echo chamber than most subreddits did
