I’ve seen quite a few posts on here about how new user are finding Lemmy, but I was wondering how existing Lemmy users feel about horde of redditors descending on their site?

I’m hoping that so far those of who have migrated over are trying to fit in and find out how to fit in with the existing culture, but do people who have been here for a while have concerns about what is to come?

I for one am hoping Lemmy will be a less toxic environment than Reddit, and I’d hate for this influx to ruin things.

Here’s hoping!

    More people = more content More content = more fun.

    There will always be scumbags but Lemmy makes it incredibly easy to deal with them. For instance if someone is harrassing users in a beehaw sub, then the admin can ban them from the entire instance.

      I want to make peace with beehaw, i wasn’t trying to be a jerk over there, i was banned after one day, i just wish there was a warning system, i mean bam after one day maybe 4 posts is extreme in my opinion, if anyone can talk to them about community blocking over instance blocking i would love for exploding heads to be unblocked as an instance by beehaw
