Until some megacorp decides to start flooding it with AI shit like reddit, then we’re fucked.
Just defederate! That’s one of the main benefits! :D
What if they floor them all?
Any instance worth its salt would ban them. Absolute worst case scenarios, we would still have whitelisted instances or you could make your own.
I love being finished doomscrolling after 15 or 20 minutes not because I hate myself, but because I ran out of fresh content for the day.
Due to having less content on Lemmy, your questions have a better chance of getting a reply even if the person can’t answer the question, they usually show support in your efforts of finding the answer.
exactly, on reddit a lot of stuff just got buried
Greater degree of healthy dialogue. People disagree on here, but they’ll more often talk it out and try to come to an understanding of some sort. Generally more curious and/or interested people and less vague shitposting.
Totally agree. One of the really cool things I’ve seen on here is people acknowledge being wrong instead of being cranky shites about it.
Not only is it OK to be wrong but it’s absolutely brilliant to acknowledge it.
Love the quality of discussion here.

that’s what I liked about reddit originally, and I feel like its much stronger here. especially since this is such a small community, basically every one of my comments (aside from ones on shitposts and the like) gets at least one solid response
We’re well established enough that we have stereotypes about different communities… it’s amusing.

The bugs?
That it’s not Reddit.
I’m still surprised by how genuine people seem to be. Sometimes someone comments or messages me and my expectation is sarcasm, judgement, or general shittiness; so I’m unsure how to reply. I think I’ve responded negatively sometimes just because i was reflexively defensive.
Unlike what seems like many, I kind of like not having so many people here. It means there’s a good chance comments and posts will be seen by others. Reddit was/is so populated that posting anything there was like speaking into a gaping void (of hatred, many bad -isms, and occasionally friendly helpful folks).
It’s kinda like the ham radio of the internet. I think. I’ve never used a ham radio, but it’s what I imagine it would be like. Lol
Over
Edit:
Or is “lol” lemmys equivalent of “over”?
LolLol.
Over.
Lol.
It’s NOT FUCKING reddit.
It is organically creating new, unique communities.
Such as?
The idiots have not yet going the platform, so I can enjoy more interesting discussions.
Yea, as some people have said, the fediverse and the threadiverse feel much more organic.
Also, no tracking by shady companies is a big selling point
I get to keep using Boost.
It’s free, no ads, and cool communities.
I think the only thing missing is creepy pastas
