It feels quite right. We need to set up lots of niche communities, but what I miss the most is the user base. It was diverse, and lemmy is known to have an specific user profile. Would be nice to reach out, wear a former redditors badge, and wear it with pride!

What is the "specific user profile" on Lemmy, in your opinion? I'm brand new here so just trying to learn what I'm in for!

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Techies, anticapitalists, anticorpos, commies, and pro LGTBQ+ with special enfassis on the T.

I'm quite like that, but I don't feel comfortable in places that are... "just that". It can feel daunting and toxic.

I enjoyed commenting on Reddit because there's normies, ppl with cold heads, savvies, ppl from different backgrounds, and that Vietnamese guy how had no access to higher education and couldn't care less about politics, which sounds the opposite than an IT person how post about FOSS and anarchy. All that people had to find an agreement, and it usually turn out pretty well.
