          Me neither, which probably explains why I’m able to see your comment.

        Plenty of redditors are here, reddit did originally start with a good crowd. I myself moved during the great fuckery of 2023. However i believe that a lot of the low-effort redditors (or however you would describe them) you are reffing to would find lemmy just that extra step too difficult/inconvenient to get into and wont take it up.

        I don’t understand this sentiment. Don’t you want Lemmy to grow and overtake the big platforms? If there’s specific people or instances you don’t like, you could block them. I see no reason to gatekeep Lemmy. I say this as an ex-redditer.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.
