Ya I mean the people who were here before the APIcalypse aren’t exactly the most amiable group either, to say the least.
Also the guy you’re responding to made his account June 15, 2023, he was almost certainly part of the original wave of reddit migrants. Not sure what he could be referring to about the last time people came from reddit, I don’t remember any big waves since the original one.
It’s like those people who move to NYC from a different region of the country and start complaining about gentrification and suburban commuters after living in a highrise for 2 years. Like bitch, you are the gentrification, and those suburbanites are a hell of a lot more familiar with the city than your ass even if they don’t live inside its limits. Sorry if that’s unrelated, I just hate gatekeeping.
Gatekeeping is never good, it doesn’t really matter who perpetrates it. Lemmy and Fediverse as a whole should be welcoming places for newbies to get into, not the barren battlefield angry to be disturbed.
But this conflict is as old as time - think of Eternal September, for example.

Applauding that.
