The fediverse isn’t going anywhere, and just getting started!

      Definitely has felt like a more welcoming community. Each comment on Reddit I made I had to mentally brace for the inevitable bot and troll replies. Constant fights.

      Here I haven’t seen much of it. Some people honestly trying to understand my points of view! Very refreshing

        Hi former redditor here. I shall now insult your mother to help you feel at home.

        Here it comes.

        Are you ready?

        I hope you are ready.

        Your mother is slightly overweight.

        I hope this helps in the transition process .

        Glad you’re here! I was a Reddit 1%’r and left when the3rd party apps were killed off. Wasn’t sure where I was going to go but I knew it wasn’t there.

        Ram across a post on arstechnica about this app and the feddiverse, and here I am.

        I can tell the paint isn’t even dry yet but damn, I’m happy to be here, too.

          I ran across a couple of comments on Ars Technica that mentioned moving to Lemmy. I’d never heard of it before.

      I’m posting a lot more here than on Reddit. There was less motivation to post there, for one a post can get buried in minutes so it can be like talking to a wall. Then there’s the hostility if a post does get play.
