Over the last week or so I have noticed that I have a lot more fun engaging in discussions on here as opposed to reddit.
On reddit i always felt like i was shouting into the void and there was nobody listening, which resulted in me becoming a lurker for the last 12 years.
Maybe it’s the small size of this community, the lack of karma farmers, that I’ve finally lost my mind or a little bit of all of the above, but this place just feels like something special. I’m really looking forward to building the fediverse with all of you!
Same, when I posted on reddit I felt rejected, even if what I said was something unimportant, there was always someone who made you feel like you were wrong for just participating, this is much better.
Yeah Reddit had this fascination with being “right” all the timing and “owning” stupid people…
*time
Sorry, I had to do it :)
Sadly I’ve observed throughout the late 2010s how Reddit society gradually became about parroting the right opinion and walking on eggshells all the time.
