Lemmy feels like seeing Reddit grow from nothing with the small community and more serious tone.
This time however, it’s ours.

They probably went to .ml or a tankie instance
they made a post, got tons of downvotes, then complained about downvotes which also got downvoted, got caught by automod because of downvotes, appealed, got unbanned, then deleted account or got purged because nothing even shows in modlog. the account was on sjw, posts were to communities in .ml and lw
This right here is why the public mod log is one of the best things on the internet.
like i said, nothing shows in modlog. user is ModerateImprovement on sh.itjust.works, i’m guessing what happened based on that reddit post
But .ml says a lot lol
I don’t get why people hate on .ml
They cater to tankies.
OK, so this is where you learned your word of the day, you’re even more pathetic than I thought
Search manipulation or just shitty Reddit search?
Google search for “lemmy” site:reddit.com/r/redditalternatives provides different top results:

I can only see one of those two posts (the second one) and it’s pretty well reasoned (I don’t agree though, just saying they did provide their reasoning in more than enough words imo). If you’re interested, here’s the link.
To summarize it:
- UI worse than New Reddit (I personally agree with it being at least just as bad, that’s why I didn’t go to Lemmy)
- Big instances are laggy (remember, the post is from 7 months ago not today, so don’t compare the statement to how they are now)
- Bad mod tools (a common complaint I see about Lemmy)
- Too much far left and tech focus (another common complaint)
- It’s not active enough (yet another common complaint)
- Shitty mods (I disagree with the specific claim made about them being worse than Reddit ones, but I’ve definitely seen at least one shitty mod here so far, and too many are neglectful)
- Lemmy developers are Maoist (fact iirc)
- The community is filled with far left extremists, Mao worshippers, dictator bootlickers, and genocide supporters (the one actually unreasonable take imo which indicates they went to the wrong instance)
The user got banned by the automod in the first one.

You got banned by the automod because your account was less than 24 hours old and you received 40 downvotes on a post. That filter is in place to combat spambots and trolls, because normal users are unlikely to trigger it by getting so many downvotes so soon after making an account
I messaged the admin and they already unbanned your account. …

Idk I kind of like Lemmy so far 🤷
Vile? What’s so vile on Lemmy?
Can someone direct me to the right communities? 😜

These comms document some bad stuff.
I don’t get the hate this place gets. It’s been really interesting watching Lemmy’s growing pains over the last two-ish years and all the changes it has undergone. The whole concept of the Fediverse is fascinating to me and has been a genuine delight to explore.
Agreed. I never even had Instagram or twitter but I’ve become a pixelfed and mastodon lurker after enjoying Lemmy for 1+ years. The comment section here is miles ahead of reddit, where you get repost after repost and the same old tired jokes in every comment section.
The fediverse is fantastic and I’m happy to be a (very minor) part of it.I’m almost 40, this place reminds me of the early internet in a good way. Like, people connecting and sharing ideas… what even Reddit used to feel like. Sure, sometimes there are arguments but, due to the lack of an “outage” algorithm to juice engagement, you usually only hear about it unless it’s something you directly follow. With the lack of profit motive on the side of the platform and hosting end of things, it appears that trolls and clout chasers have a genuine hard time monopolizing everyone’s attention.
Same. It feels more personal.
Lemmy tastes like reddit that I have grown in my backyard garden.
so small and bitter but you just smile through it and say “it’s so good! 😢”?
maybe I don’t know how to grow stuff…
Apparently there is a guy called Lemmy LMAO 🤣
