I love it. I'm really glad to see Lemmy and more specifically Lemmy.World growing slowly but surely.

I've been posting content and comments more often than I had been doing on Reddit for the past 3 years. I think a lot of that, has to do with your posts and comments don't get auto-bombed because you're 'competing' with others. I've also noticed and appreciated that in nearly all of the communities I'm subbed to, there seem to be more genuine discussions happening than on Reddit's compatible communities. I rarely see the 'worthless' comments nowadays. Examples such as, "Your mom," "Like," "Same," "[insert edge lord comment]," etc. Which is wonderful!

And I think like a lot of us, being strong internet citizens, we want this to work out for the long haul..
