    I haven’t really seen that many, are you noticing them somewhere in particular?

    I feel like I’m more “pro-Reddit” than a lot of other users here, in that I’m supportive of people that want to use both while working on the Lemmy alternative to whatever subreddit they might still want to use.

    Some useful communities didn’t get rolling on here yet (career communities, niche hobbies and interests, social causes) and it’s ok if people want to check them to keep up. People have lives outside of Reddit/Lemmy.

    That’s about the extent of the pro-Reddit that I’ve seen on here. It’s possible you might be seeing some vote manipulation? I can take a look later too

      No, not one place in particular. All over. This thread https://sh.itjust.works/post/12661975 is a recent example. When I got there it was full of people making excuses for people staying on reddit, and I got downvoted for pointing it out https://sh.itjust.works/comment/7470095.

      I’ve even seen it in places like lemmy.world/reddit, so I’m glad that [email protected] exists.

      It’s possible you might be seeing some vote manipulation?

      I considered that, but it’s not just votes, there are plenty of comments too.

        Ohh ok

        Yea I personally find most of those points reasonable, but I get why you might disagree

        As for your point in that comment: If some community actively opposes migrating, then that’s likely bad and it should be called out. A lot of the communities I’ve encountered seem to have the mindset of “we are open to it but don’t have the time/energy to do it ourselves”. I’m helping with a few communities like that :)
