I’ve been really enjoying my time here lately and I have noticed things.

  1. discussions are more chill. On Reddit people would get into flame wars over things and here while it happens it’s not as bad, and I actually enjoy spending time here.

  2. people are nicer.

  3. moderation is amazing.

  4. diversity in thoughts is also amazing.

    I am having a similar experience. I’ve had a pretty serious reddit problem and since I moved to /kbin, Tildes, mastodon, feedly, and of course a few lemmy instances, I’m a happier person. Seriously.

    I guess if you don’t subject yourself to social media that aims to magnify hostility and rage for clicks, it has a positive impact on your life.

    I, for one, am feeling thankful to spez for placing the final straw, and, more seriously, feel indebted to beehaw, Tildes, and mastodon admins for doing such a great job creating a positive community.
