MODERATORS
 

I myself am really on the fence about this.

I hate what Reddit has done, as I was removed as a moderator on my sub. But I much prefer the UI to Lemmy so far. I’m also having a hard time understanding how this all works. I was familiar with Reddit, and it is obviously a way more active community.

But I also used Apollo and hate how they’ve done him so dirty.

Will you guys return if Reddit rights it’s wrongs?

No I like it here better. The community is better. It's less toxic. Feels like the old internet again

I have to agree on the toxicity bit. People here actually have discourse. Reddit was literally full of people that were full of piss and vinegar and wanted nothing more than to argue with people. You check their comment history and they were full pricks in every interaction. I've contributed more here in 3 days than I have on reddit in the last 2 months. Commenting on reddit was fun. The fact people can't really karma farm here seems to make a world of difference too.
