  As someone who used reddit for 14+ years, this place feels exactly like early Reddit, a place where you actually can converse with anyone and contribute instead of yelling into the void. Realistically we will always have both, but many more will join the verse everytime Reddit has an oopsie.

    Narwhal, bacon, midnight, dick butt, le, doggo.

    The real question, when we enter ^ this era of Lemmy, how many years of prison is appropriate for the above genre of jokes?

      Lmao beans fit that list, we can cringe about it all we want now but at the time we’re building community.

      We even have our own annoying group of brigade-ers.

  The sheer coverage of every subject on Reddit is crazy. Yesterday I was getting infuriated at a stupid plot in the 3 Body Problem, so I ddged it, and of course I found 3 Reddit threads sharing my frustrations. What a shame it has to get enshitified.

    It helps that Reddit along with other big platforms like FB absorbed all the traffic that in the old days would have been distributed into small separate forums. Not good for the ecosystem.

      Internet ecosystem is a great term, it was put well in an article someone shared on slrpnk: slrpnk.net/post/8711732

  We’re doing our best!

  If you’re in a niche community, don’t be afraid to put some content out there. Niche communities are generally so happy to see any conversation. The amount of criticism/downvoting I’ve seen on topics in slow communities has been very low.
