Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

I've been really enjoying my time here lately and I have noticed things.

  1. discussions are more chill. On Reddit people would get into flame wars over things and here while it happens it's not as bad, and I actually enjoy spending time here.

  2. people are nicer.

  3. moderation is amazing.

  4. diversity in thoughts is also amazing.

I completely agree! It's a little sad as I go through my saved links and comments through the years before I delete my account, remembering the discussions and communities. But that version of Reddit died long ago.

Lemmy has been really enjoyable though, I'm looking forward to seeing the communities and platform develop over time

that version of reddit

Yeah that's the thing, I have not jumped due to API thing (although I am worried about how it will be moderated). I was looking to jump for last year or more, but nothing scratched that itch....between big subs being so big, being shouted down for having an opinion and slowly building up bans (when you post every day for 12 years you are likily to post something mods don't like in that time). Been looking to get out ofr a while.
