It is new. It's also old, like the way the internet used to be. The way /c/Canada doesn't turn into /r/Canada is by staying and engaging. π€π
It is pretty exciting though.
I hate to be that guy who says "this", but...this. 100%. I came across one comment somewhere on Lemmy that said something like "how we build the communities now will dictate how they are in the future". It's kind of cheesy, but I want to believe that we can build something better and more positive than reddit is/was. There's too much negativity on the internet these days.
That's a neat thought .... and possibly a prediction too.
It's also very profound when think about it.
What we do on this site, this platform now will dictate what it will become in the future.
The future is really at our fingertips.
Thanks for this .... Stay well and I look forward to seeing what we will all create.
I was excited on joining r/Canada but left a bad taste in my mouth when I got banned due to a wrong leaning comment. That turned me away for being more active in our subreddit. I hope this instance would encourage healthy discourse unlike the previous r/Canada.
