Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

Yeah, one thing I hope to leave behind with Reddit is every major subreddit farming outrage w.r.t. American politics.

It just became exhausting and made me unsub from a lot of the big subreddits. So far, Lemmy has been quite positive! It's refreshing.

I don't know if it is true but I feel like Lemmy is not really USA centric at the moment. More like assuming that a user could be from any country. I think that we should keep it that way.

Fediverse is really international since instances are everywhere in the globe

Yes! I haven't seen a single answer starting with 'in my state' yet and I'd like to keep it that way.

I feel the same way. I'm looking at a sub with pictures of pointy tail cats, the T word doesn't belong here.
