I decided to take a peek at Reddit to see what kind of activity is happening, a good handful of the subreddits I am subscribed to are still super active with posts and commenters.

There’s quite a few news articles on the front page regarding Spez and the blackouts, I am surprised those articles are even still up for people to see.

The comment section is filled with people saying how they should just kick the mods out of the dark Reddit’s and take over, ofcourse these posts are heavily upvoted…

Perhaps there is some AI activity going on, I mean it’s kind of easy to do in this day and age. You just prompt an army of AI bots to defend Reddit, and try to keep users engaged.

I am so happy I found Lemmy, and I am so happy that there is a comfortable level of activity. Sure it’s only a small fraction of what Reddit is activity wise, but it’s so much more hearty and welcoming.

Reddit has just turned into one big toxic mess. Lemmy reminds me of what Reddit used to be 10 years ago.

      This is not reddit… Lol

      I realized that after I posted it. I was able to fix it in the title even! This is so much better than Reddit.

        You know what, reddit was filled with people who got upset when others tried to help them improve. Let’s not take that with us here.

        I, for one, am grateful when others point out a mistake because it helps me to become better. That’s the mentality we should encourage here.

          I agree with you, I was mainly just making a joke. It’s when people point out a spelling mistake, without actually commenting on what’s being said as well. But at the same time feedback is feedback, it’s great building material.
