Just want to say that every time Reddit does something shitty like this, Lemmy will get a boost. And with Lemmy constantly getting better (both community and platform), I’m willing to bet these boosts come with smaller user drop offs every time.

Which is to say, keep up the good work Reddit!

At this point (and with Sync, as I used for reddit), Lemmy is indistinguishable from my reddit browsing experience. Except on Lemmy I don't encounter constant hostility.

There are still few very niche/local communities here that I have seen, at least active ones. But that's only because of the much smaller user base

There are a couple of communities I miss, like r/fountainpens and r/suzukisamurai. Im sure I could figure out how to create those communities, im not sure I'd be a good mod.

  1. I believe you would be
  2. you can always get better mods to help/take over in the future.

Be the change you want to to see in the world

tbh there won't be much to mod in niche communities. so don't let that stop you.

You're probably right, but I'd really hate to have to clean up a bunch of nazi shit from my nice family friendly Samurai circlejerk.
