After migrating from Reddit, it’s jarring that comment sections aren’t cluttered with hashtag-style comments that are just links to subreddits like /HoLuP/ - eviltoast

I love that comment sections here are like, y’know, discussions and stuff. Not just the same jokes and parroted phrases over and over and over.

    Strange, isn’t it? Takes some time to get used to.

    Then, once you start to get used to it, you realize how screwed up reddit must have been for civility to seem strange.

      I’m just so excited to have conversations again which aren’t full of negativity. I didn’t really see how toxic Reddit was until RIF closed down.

      My first social media was Livejournal (I bet you’re too young to know what that is), which was a private blogging platform, and it was full of really beautiful intimate friendships I maintain to this day 24 years later. I hope for similar vibes for Lemmy.
