I went and looked at the Reddit front page today - Lemmy.zip

The content was incredibly boring. That site is already going downhill. I came right back to Lemmy and immediately was more entertained. You’re all much funnier and more creative. I feel like Reddit had a brain drain after the protest.

For me both are in a bad phase. Here the top posts are always political and related to the United States. I had to block some communities

I think the main difference is that things here are improving over time.

I’m also pleasantly surprised at how friendly folks are as well as the depth of discussion.

I nuked a ten year old account on Reddit to move here and it feels just… More pleasant here.

Everyone’s rooting for it’s success which creates a very positive vibe.

Yep, I’m struggling to find a good filter still, I’m kinda getting bored of both tbh. The top content here is shit imo, and that’s with meme communities filtered.

I’m very greatful for Voyagers mark read on scroll so it’s just a matter of blitzing past like apollos experience.

Narwhal is decent for reddit at least but pales in comparison to Apollo (of course)

Lemmy is still too obsessed with reddit, for as much as Lemmy loves to hate on Reddit they sure are very interested in it lol.

I’ve been saying it for days, when reddit went to shit everyone got fractured and thus all of the “replacement” platforms are just as bad as reddit for content right now.

…you say on the Lemmy community about Reddit. 😅

It’s understandable human nature, though. Many promising new dates have been spoiled by one of the participants not being able to shut up about their crappy ex.
