I'm sure many will go back to Reddit but some wont. I for one will be staying on Lemmy as I've found it a breath of fresh air.

Same! The mood here reminds me of the good old days when everyone on Reddit wasn't a cynical asshole.

Jerboa is already a better app than Reddit's official app, so I'm quite happy to give the Lemmy and Jerboa devs time to iron out the kinks.

God why is everyone on reddit a cynical asshole?

It's a reflection of society as a whole, unfortunately.

I think there's more to it because there are people on Reddit who act like assholes on Reddit but in real life you'd never know since they seem like nice people.

It's not reddit. It's the pseudonymity of the internet. I've met people who just didn't understand they were talking to real people because they were just typing at their computers. I noticed that 20 years ago for the first time and it didn't really change over the years. the only thing one could blame reddit for is "being popular enough to attract idiots".
