    it’s weird not to have strangers insisting that they can base their arguments on hallucinations that they’ve had.

    It’s nice to rarely deal with trolls. I say rarely, as I’ve seen a few users recently argue, just to be assholes.

    Ironically, both appear to be very heavy Lemmy posters, and one seems to be downvoting me, still.

    That said, I’ve actually met users I run into semi regularly in others posts, which is a nice change.

    I’ve already moved on. Couldn’t care less about Reddit any more.

    Before the APIcalypse, I was already playing with the thought of quitting Reddit. Spez just sped up that process.

      The admins made it really easy to quit when they suspended me after RvW for saying that riot police should quit their jobs en masse

      But somehow straight up calling for the end of trans people is totally fine and dandy by them

      This.

      But not much has changed, functionally, for me: I still get downvoted when I point out where people can improve their English and surpass my nephew when he was in the third grade. And I still get to debate technical things based on what I know, so that’s really no change. Different pile, is all.

        Not here to fight you, but this line of thinking might be why people downvote you for being a language/grammar nazi.

          Correcting someone’s English also almost never adds anything to the conversation at hand, which is the literal purpose of the downvote.

    I CAN ACTUALLY POST ON c/asklemmy NOW!!

    Back when I was like 13 and on reddit, I posted what I thought was a good open question to askreddit, and it immediately got deleted with no stated reason. Now, I can ask any interesting question I have, and receive tons of interesting responses from people!

      A lot of the same Reddit mods have transferred to other major communities. Unfortunately you’ll likely still hit the same issue over here, I’ve already been banned by one outrageous mod for disagreeing with him.

      Best part about lemmy, ban that user/community/instance and move on.

    I want to like this place.

    People seem too aggressive here though.

    And apparently everyone’s hobby is using Linux and neurodiverging.
