How do existing Lemmy users feel about the influx of Reddit refugees? (self.lemmyworld)

I’ve seen quite a few posts on here about how new user are finding Lemmy, but I was wondering how existing Lemmy users feel about horde of redditors descending on their site?

I’m hoping that so far those of who have migrated over are trying to fit in and find out how to fit in with the existing culture, but do people who have been here for a while have concerns about what is to come?

I for one am hoping Lemmy will be a less toxic environment than Reddit, and I’d hate for this influx to ruin things.

Here’s hoping!

@AyyLMAO @rarkgrames that's one of the reasons I've recommended #kbin over #lemmy (the other being that it federates better with other 'verse group platforms including Friendica Forums, lemmy communities, guppe groups, and their native kbin magazines)

Looks interesting, thanks for sharing.

I signed up for kbin before joining Lemmy but I honestly found kbin a bit confusing. Lemmy just seems a little easier to navigate imho. If Lemmy wasn’t here I’m sure I would have persevered with kbin but I’m happy with Lemmy so this will be what I stick with I think.
