I do feel like I have more authentic interactions on here. It’s hard not to see how much more heavily a huge platform like reddit is botted and astroturfed, and controlled by a handful of owners, mods and powerusers, compared to the nascent fediverse. Not that we don’t have those things here too, I think Lemmy just hasn’t had a high enough profile, yet, to warrant much attention from the same bad actors who run vast portions of reddit, X, and facebook. Here’s hoping it stays that way for a little while longer.
Nope. Once it picks up traction it will eventually be controlled by the powers that be to stop “hate speech” and we’ll have to go somewhere else. It’s the circle of the internet 🥹

You, sir, are obviously not thinking of the children /s
We got the shitty power mods down though
Looking at you Dessalines, JordanLund, FlyingSquid, DraconicNEO
Careful - criticizing FlyingSquid in any way tends to lead to a ban.
No way! Criticising the power tripping asshole will get me power tripped?
