MODERATORS
I don't yet, but it's getting closer.
One reason is on me. I should choose a different instance because mine is the other side of the world from me! Different vibe. I probably haven't moved because I enjoy experiencing local views which oppose and align with my own. Conversely, In the community context, I follow "fuck_ai" and some of the pro-AI communities because it's important to me to see both sides of this revolution develop.
The second is that quite a few of the Reddit communities have limited Lemmy presence with significant momentum. That will hopefully change with time and other platforms willing.
On the flip side, I've found that there are many communities which have momentum which I joined on Lemmy for fun that I haven't investigated as to whether they exist in Reddit. My interests are eclectic and transient sometimes. Perhaps my sense of wonder will wilt one day (that alliteration sounded better in my head; damn!).
The anti AI communities sure are very vocal
Pretty sure the anti steam power or electricity people were too.
I'm a strange bugger, I like to hear both sides of an argument and especially the corner cases. That never seems to happen anymore.
Yeah. Most of it is ranting but very occasionally someone says something interesting or someone from the pro- side makes something known that isn't very pro- (copyright breaches etc).
