I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it’s because I am limited to using the desktop and can’t aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.

      all pathological downvoters will stay there

      The pathological downvoters ran from Reddit first. They missed fresh blood.

      Sadly those were probably botnets. If you pick on a subject, and there’s certain keywords there…boom brigaded in 30 seconds.

        Wow didn’t know about this… It’ be cool if Lemmy used a reaction-based rather than vote-based system…
