    Smaller communities make a different quality of conversation. What it reminds me of is early Reddit, yes.

    Lemmy is full of tankies and Linux nerds. It’s a different kind of toxic to what you’d experience over on Reddit.

    It’s a child of Reddit.

    It grew up learning some good habits and some bad, it continues traditions it didn’t start, but it runs it’s own household with it’s own traditions, and is building upon the values it’s learned.

    We have mods that use the banhammer as a disagree button, just like reddit. But we are also openly hostile to nazis unlike reddit.

    Reddit is bigger, so it’s more diverse and less hateful. But behavioral patterns are the same imo.

    .world is basically reddit. Sometimes I wonder why they left. Everywhere else has a delightfully different vibe.

    The Westerners are slightly/somewhat less imperialistic, which is great. Also, people are visibly not as intellectually challenged.

    On reddit the conservative subs don’t allow discussions or debates. On Lemmy the leftist subs don’t allow discussions or debates.

    Significantly different in most communities. Much more collab work for one. Plus faster changes in general. Hard to game an algorithm when everyone has a different one and in different places. The people are just nicer here. I feel like I can actually have a conversation without being drowned.
