Tbh when I'm reading comments on Lemmy I'm seeing way more negativity than what was in Reddit discussions.. this comment is really an example of that too. It was a nightmare reading discussion here when Sync was released. I'm trying to like this place but I find the community here to be a bit exhausting, it seems if you don't conform to certain ideas/opinions you're just going to get torn apart in the discussion. Not to mention I'm seeing a lot more politically right leaning attitudes around here than I'm used to (which doesn't HAVE to be a bad thing but unfortunately usually ends up being so).
Not saying all of Lemmy is like this, but from what I see get voted to the top of discussions more often than not, it seems to be the vibe here. Reddit had it's issues of course but at least it still seemed to carry a lighthearted attitude in the community. I hope more people come here still and the community vibe changes.
Sorry for this. Atmosphere and vibes are greatly different from community to community.
I noticed that everytime Reddit is mentioned there is indeed more negativity
