    Oh yes we do, we want the community here to be like it was in Reddit before the meddling of that greedy, right-wing asshole-in-charge allowed maga to flourish there, and before he fully and officially enshittified the interface.

    It was always naive to think Lemmy was somehow immune from the bullshit of Reddit culture. It may be immune from a centralized authority that can ruin all instances, but in terms of the culture, it is the same. Whoever thinks differently is just drinking massive amounts of copium solution.

      This exactly. The reason people left reddit is because of the actions of the people running the site, not the user base or culture.

        I guess the difference here is that there isn’t a defined group of people running the side

        • admins have some power, but users can switch instances in 2 clicks
        • devs have some power, but other compatible platforms exist (https://joinmbin.org/ and https://piefed.social/ for people reading this)
        • mods have some power, but modlogs are public, and people will create other communities after powertrips

    The flaw in this logic: We had memes over on reddit. Why are you posting memes here? If you want to post memes, you should go back to reddit.

      Yeah, also Reddit used to be good. So why not make it “like there”, but just 7-10 years ago

    Fucking yeesh. The problem with Reddit isn’t Redditors and mods, it never was. The problem is the Reddit admins and owners. Let people do what they want, it literally doesn’t affect you.

        I got permabanned from commenting on r/insaneparents for “giving medical advice” when I was just sharing my own similar experience and saying that a good psychologist helped me put things in perspective. It was my only rule break and they didn’t respond to my messages asking for forgiveness and to be reinstated other than a threat to fully ban me if I kept contacting them… Some mods are shit.

    I thought this one was about immigrants. In Europe specifically. I’m spending too much time on politics lemmy
