I think my favorite thing about Lemmy is that it feels like Reddit used to. Less negativity, more engaged users (I think). I know it will be fun to watch Reddit die, but if I put spite aside what I’m really mad at Reddit about is more about what Reddit became and maybe part of that is when the general internet user started going to Reddit and it became less like the small community it was years ago. Feel free to disagree or share an argument 😉
The best part about Reddit is the sheer amount of actually useful, highly specific information about anything. The friendly community aspect has been, in my opinion, slowly crumbling for a few years now. If Lemmy starts to get as big as current Reddit, then I’m sure it will follow the same path and become shittifed. I do hope it takes a while though.
