MODERATORS
I suppose I was lucky in some ways. I stopped using Reddit a few months ago, after 5 years of addiction, but I was on the way out anyway. I had some bad experiences asking for help, never really posted otherwise and just generally the community made me feel like being inexperienced with anything was the same as being an asshole. I moved to lemmy and I instantly started posting more, answering questions and basically just enjoy talking to people on here. I haven't been back and deleted my account months ago.
