Something I WONT miss from Reddit/other social medias (beehaw.org)

Like most other people here, I originally came here from reddit. Ive been having a blast so far, and I much prefer the forum-style of this. After about a week of using Lemmy I realized there was something intrinsic to reddit that Lemmy doesnt have. And I wont miss it. Too many people on reddit were way too horny. I was really annoying, but Lemmy seems way more chill. Plus its refreshing knowing that the people on here arent all bots.

i'm new here. i never used reddit except if it was a search result for a specific, usually technical, question.

every thread i've looked at here has been like this one, intelligent, reasoned, no dunking except to look like a donut for effect.

the reddit experience described here… wow. that's many years of boiling frog.

I think that a lot of the people commenting here mainly stayed on very large subs or something. This hasn't been my experience with Reddit. In the subs I usually frequent, there are some short joke comments, but usually there's useful discussion and there is basically no horny posting. It might be because they're smaller subs or maybe I got lucky? IDK.
