Idk y’all, I see a lot of angry posts about Reddit still because of being essentially forced out, however! (self.general)

I feel like lemmy is actually really amazing and has a lot of smart discussion happening instead of the constant circlejerking that happens on Reddit. I also feel the community here is a lot more hopeful/helpful! That’s all, thanks for reading 😄

Circle jerking about Lemmy while complaining about Reddit circle jerking is peak social media. :)

I was just trying to be positive instead of the usual Reddit hate we see. It feels like most comments about Reddit were mad they had to be here on lemmy, but lemmy is legitimately a great place. Wasn’t trying to circle jerk sorry

There is no need to apologize. I was just making a joke. In fact, unless you deliberately insult someone or in some rare edge cases I'd argue there is never a need to apologize for something you write.
