Sorting by new on Lemmy isn’t a dumpster fire experience like it is on Reddit
Sorting by new on Lemmy isn’t a dumpster fire experience like it is on Reddit

I wanted to see what it was like, so I checked your profile. I didn’t see your downvoted comment, but I did see that Lemmy upvotes pro-pineapple pizza comments.
Now I’m not so sure about Lemmy.

I was on Reddit since the beginning. It was mailing lists before and Usenet in the 1990s.
Lemmy now is how early Reddit used to be, only more jaded.
I think we are just more into tech, and that’s why we are here now. Because we are into tech, we care about what happens here and despise the behavior of reddit.
Probably not smarter than other people, we just care more because of our interests.
Been hard-lurking (no account) here for a few weeks, made an account finally and this is my first comment. I was a hard lurker on Reddit too, but that was because most of the interactions I’ve had were… bad.
Definitely seems to be a gentler place, really enjoying the Summit app, it reminds me of Boost. I’ve got an unRAID server I was thinking about spinning up a Lemmy docker container on, but there’s not a ton of info on this specific implementation, so I will likely wait for an unRAID community app to do that more easily.
Anyway, cheers from an ex-lurker!
Sweet Roko’s Basilisk, so I wasn’t missing some mysterious reddit setting where I ‘new’ was translated as ‘wtf’ and ‘crap’?
It’s a whole new world.
