I joined reddit on the tailwind, so it was all echo chamber, we hate newcomers, gatekeeping, automod frenzy, too many rulebreakers, too many rules, etc I could be wrong, but thats what I imagine it used to be like.

You know, I’ve felt there’s a sizable difference now in the kinds of discussion you tend to see depending on your home instance. Lemmy.world really feels like Reddit in both good and bad ways. Lemmy.ca is cool with local news and a smattering of other communities. But I what I really love beehaw.org. There are few places like it, and I hope if people join there, they don’t bring their Reddit tendencies with them. Slow down a bit, think of each other and enjoy real, thoughtful discussion.
I’ve heard this sentiment repeatedly. I love my instance, blahaj zone, but we are more about memes than politics. One instance I’ve found great for discussion is literature.cafe.
I went through and see that a LOT of my favorite communities are on Lemmy.world - I wonder if that will change.
