      People are just much more supportive and friendlier here. But I guess because we are in a state now before all the assholes join from reddit…

        Maybe it’s just me but Mastodon seems still way friendlier than Twitter, I guess partly to do with the people but also the platform structure that seems to have less incentive to attack people. Hope it’s the same for Lemmy.

    My account here is 4 years old. I was so excited to learn about Lemmy back then, but the user base was painfully low. I’m getting that same excitement I had back then.

    Please new people, make this your permanent home and forget Reddit!

    I joined a year ago and it’s crazy, i remember getting excited over 20 upvotes, that AMA and the whole 3rd party fiasco really brought a lot of people here!

      Yeah, u/spez being a terrible CEO/person might be the best thing to happen to the fediverse. I tried Mastodon a few months ago but the community wasn’t big enough to get me hooked. I joined Lemmy earlier this week and I really like the community that’s developing here.
