I have noticed that I interact a lot more in Lemmy than I ever did in any social media. Let it be Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter… I am used to be the lurker, but here for some reason things are different. Wonder if more people feel like I do.
Way more. There’s lots of genuine posts on here and not karma farming bots. Also, my posts in c/lockpicking and c/balisong actually got replies fairly quickly. On reddit, I would’ve been met with downvotes or people who don’t even interact with my posts.
Not yet, but I plan to. I’m slowly tapering off Reddit, I’m forced to use the main app, I even managed to remove the ads off it, but I still hate it. It doesn’t show the posts that the third party apps always show, the ordering is off no matter how you change it. Hard to explain.
Yeah, I feel more up for interacting on lemmy. Right now the vibe feels more sane and friendly than reddit and less uptight than mastodon, so maybe it’s where I feel most comfortable.
Honestly not much. I interacted a lot more with people on squabbles before that went to shit, but now I am a bit like the friendly pink blob that gets punched back into its box and swears to never come out again…
They are both filled with very ill informed people. I guess that’s all of the Internet though. People who have no clue are the first to give their opinions. The topics that are started by “low information voters” are often most popular with other low information voters.
