Upside of a small community: more interaction between the users that do comment.

Downside of a small community: if someone's a dick, you can't really completely get away from them.

Or at least, if you visit reddit, don't click on any ads or contribute in a meaningful way. In addition, never directly link to reddit. In a way, all your actions that affect reddit in any way should be to the detriment of reddit. It's like trying to cut down a sequoia with a sharp pebble, but even small livestock shits.

I've been away awhile but I haven't been using reddit either which is probably the best outcome tbh

Every time I've gone back to Reddit, I've just seen the local communities I used to like getting incredibly right wing with the increasing number of wolf whistles in the comments. Or pro weed nonsense

And honestly, it just felt like doom scrolling and a waste of time. It has grown now to the point it's just basically the Facebook crowd.

Lemmy is sufficiently busy, and much better quality. And there is more to think about when reading comments
