Do you feel this place has gotten more.. reddit-y lately? - eviltoast

Of course, that’s to be expected, with people migrating from Reddit and all, but the title is kind of badly worded.

Feel there’s a lot more argumentative and just kind of… angry users on here. (have you seen Sync fans biting everyone’s asses over saying money should be spent funding instances and not an app?)

Live laugh love Lemmy though :)

    It comes down to the heavy lifting the mods do. They are way too under appreciated back on reddit and here too. People think they can self police themselves and that other people will follow, but it’s the mods who set and maintain the type of tone they want for the community. People here aren’t anymore special than any other social media, so moderated communities and instances becomes important for those that arent happy with the outcomes of more lax moderation environments once they see users aren’t behaving the way they’d like them to.
