    I rarely commented on reddit, but I often comment on lemmy, I’m not sure what it is, but I certainly like the communities here more, especially beehaw.

      Beehaw’s really friendly, and I like the space that instance has been building. Overall though, I’ve noticed all of Lemmy is generally more positive than Reddit, it’s really refreshing.

        I’ve noticed this too, its what caused me to sign up rather than lurk. I think part of the reason for this is the ability to defederate an instance lets you block a problematic group, leading to less bad faith conversations and trolling. I also think the smaller size of lemmy helps.

        Also, I like how I don’t wind up doom scrolling here.
