I feel the same way about Mastodon. Way more civil and intellectual compared to Twitter. Whereas on places like Twitter/Reddit it feels like you can feel your braincells dying when you interact with the majority of idiots that congregate on those sites.
Yeah I saw a similar sentiment on another thread that summarizes to: Lemmy being a little hard to figure out might be a feature, not a bug.
I’m absolutely no elitist, but I think a lot of us can attest to the overall quality of reddit content decreasing over time. I browse r/all and so tired of seeing the constant reposts, many by bots etc etc.
Remains to be seen how everything will shake out. But Lemmy does seem chill so far, and less vitriol in general
Idk. The lemmy.ml instance seems practically overrun with CCP/Russian apologists. From literally defending the Tienanmen Sq. massacre to just the tankiest tankies that ever tankied - I’ve definitely seen my fair share of shitheads in the past week here.
I’ll still use Lemmy. The people here are way nicer.
This all the way - and way more understanding compared to Reddit

If you’re not happy with your instance, use a different instance.
