The lemmings are a squeaky bunch.
I kind of feel like Reddit is the biggest bar in the world and having a conversation there feels like it. If you aren’t loud and early, you can’t really participate in a meaningful way. The smaller crowd of Lemmy is a sweet spot for me. Enough people that it’s not dead, but small enough that I can still participate in conversations.
Also, on Reddit I felt dread seeing that there was something in my inbox. On Lemmy, I’m excited to see what someone wrote. Just a very different experience overall.
Well well well, look what you have waiting for you. A nice blip of free dopamine. You’re welcome and have a lovely evening.

Edit: never mind, the instance banned me for not believing in their dogma that dragons exist. Please report all of my posts and comments on that instance since I can no longer delete them
Enjoy your death trap, ladies!
196 is great
Turns out mindlessly scrolling through 10 000 comments isn’t actually a great experience.
True, but reddit is better for niche interests. For example, we don’t seem to have any serious philosophy or history communities here. (I am happy to be wrong here, someone please let me know.) On the other hand, r/askphilosophy and r/askhistorians regularly get interesting questions answered by actual professionals.
