The influx of Redditors has had a detrimental effect on Lemmy.
I'm a long time Lemmy lurker and occasional Redditor. Since the Reddit influx, I've watched the frequency of shitty Reddit-type behavior, e.g., combative comments, trolling, and unnecessary rudeness, just sky rocket.
I'm happy to have more content on Lemmy, but I wish the bad actors and assholes would have stayed on Reddit.
Yes, I realize the irony of posting this on a new community that's basically a Reddit transplant.
You're viewing a single thread.
It's not reddit's people in my mind. It's how the society is structured in general. The fediverse gets slowly adopted by more and more people so it's natural that there is a annoying group of idiots.
I think they are always everywhere in a percentage. So the bigger the group the more Idiots.
It's possible that this percentage is increasing to be fair.
And yes, I'm a disgusting reddit refugee.
Basically another Eternal September. Yes, I'm going to keep linking to it in these threads like the lazy bum I am.
