Agreed. This place ain't 100% the same but it's been a fine replacement and it will get better over time.

I like the communities around here. Different ones are larger here than on The-Site-That-Shall-Not-Be-Named which gives it a different feel. And people seem to be more apt to have discussions instead of getting crabby. Also seem to be fewer bots.

what bots we have here are usually super helpful, like our good friend autotldr :)

Definitely a different vibe of people here, I have to actively tell myself to be less snarky and more positive to fit in.

IMHO it's so much better. I've had better discussions, less stupid comments (no pun comment threads so far for example).

I don't want Lemmy to turn into Reddit.
