Like others have noted, between being a growing platform and the exodus of Reddit, theres bound to be a influx of users... Internet users. The worst...
I came here from Reddit, unable to support the site any longer. I to am see changes from when i started (initially visiting before creating an account a few months ago) and there are some changes already. But you get some good to. A better diversity of posts and more interesting things. But also ass hats. The good.ajd bad of the internet. Still. I do feel this site, at least for bow, is far less toxic then reddit... Or 4chan (lol). So... It is what it is?
We need to make the best of lemmys, and maybe we can encourage the positive over the ass hattery. (fairly certain thats a word, yea).
Thank you. Gave up Reddit when Reddit Is Fun (RIF) died. Found Lemmings. Wait a few weeks and now here I am. I have to admit the different instances and this federation thingy, a lot to learn though it feels.more background stuff that Reddit may have had but we just didnt notice. Appreciate the post and happy to be here. Cheers!
