I was wondering how the pre-reddit lemmy members feel about the influx of ex-reddit. Have things got worst or better? Is there any lemmy etiquette that we are missing?

    While I am positive overall, I do not like that some bad habits from reddit are resurfacing here, mostly not being able to have different opinion without someone insulting you.

    This is humans were talking about. Humans on the internet. This is inevitable and I wouldn’t specifically attribute this to former reddit users. You have this on Twitter, you have this on Instagram. The “my opinion is the only correct opinion” sentiment is prevalent everywhere today. Sadly.

      Also: this is community-specific.

      Many subreddits were fantastic about not tolerating insults or disrespect.

      I expect the same here - some Fediverse communities will be a free-for-all with insults, some will be a welcoming place for people to disagree without getting insulted.

      It’s not anyone’s goal to impose one set of rules of decorum for the entire Fediverse.
