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!
I’ve always felt kind of anxious about commenting or posting so in over 10 years on Reddit I only posted and commented a handful of times. I only joined kbin yesterday and I feel such an urge to properly engage with the community that it has made me push past my anxiety. I absolutely love it!
