After using reddit for years and Lemmy for months I’ve made some observations, YMMV though. I interact most heavily with ask type subs on both platforms. I’ve noticed a significantly further left lean here. I figured it’d be less moderated but I haven’t really found that to be the case. I’ve also noticed in some cases very crazy people have been banned/shadow banned off redit and end up here spewing wild shit. Opinions tend to be stronger here. Very long answers are more common here. Post creation in communities like this are generally better in my experience because replies are people who care to answer meaningfully or not at all. If I ask a question here I’ll get responses from the leftist/liberal/communist/anarchist/antirealist side of things exclusively. On reddit I’ll get leftist/liberal/left/right/alt right answers.
