Came here to say this, but shorter. Imagine my surprise to see “Positivity” first word in the top comment. I know we don’t all agree on everything, but the vibe on Lemmy (for me at least) seems to be share our views or shut up.

The other thing is how political everything seems to get. Even outside of political communities you see it seaping into the comments. I might be remembering wrong, but reddit didn’t seem to have that issue (as much). If you weren’t in a politically orriented community the mods kept that kinda talk out.

All that being said, I’m sticking with Lemmy. I don’t hace any desire to go back to reddit even as a lurker. I hope lemmy gets nicer as more people join. I’ve embraced being downvoted. I will try to love communism and linux to a greater degree than I already do.

Reddit forces me to use their app and Lemmy forces me to recognize the bad in everything. The internet is basically trash now.
