Bagging Reddit is actually kinda discouraged, more Linux and communism. Or at least screeching about capitalism at every opportunity.

Yeah, for a website forged almost exclusively from former Redditors and especially ones who got burned by Reddit's abysmal leadership, I rarely see complaints about Reddit on here – arguably far fewer than on Reddit itself.

The socialists are the native inhabitants of this land, the Redditors are the ruthless imperialist colonisers.

I'm half-Redditor, half-socialist. I hope I'm still welcome among those with a pure socialist heritage.

Or maybe the Redditors are refugees and the lemmy nativists have convinced themselves they are eating their pets.

That's been a welcome change in the last ~6 months. It was a fire hose blast of people going back and forth on whether a 'thing' was brought over from reddit, and whether or not it was welcome.

Do I want to open a can of worms by asking what the 'thing' is?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Oh, just insert whatever you remember from reddit. Replies that are obviously jokes but off topic, mimicking a meme or such; doing the 'follow the link' meme (though I only remember that one popping up once or twice); sounding out a sentence one word per reply... I saw all of those get panned or promoted. Some people screamed about leaving such habits at reddit, others thought they were the height of humor.

There's a lot of those jokes that will hopefully die on the platform. They had well and truly run their course even on Reddit.

Also make sure you double check if you browse by all and decide to leave a comment

Let me guess, you commented on a community nodded by the Lemmy.ml admin?

lol this is great. Sorry, non wannabe commies get brigaded around these parts

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeah is is kind of wild. They act as if I killed the cat

It’s just a huge problem on Lemmy. Right now there isn’t enough content really to justify defederating so it’s like they are the weird family members than you can’t stand but have to somewhat tolerate

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

The problem is that they are on lots of instances now

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

I’ve unfortunately noticed that too. We’re both getting downvoted so they are constantly lurking in the shadows like little rodents
