Reddit been dead for awhile, homie. Welcome.
I bought Boost for Lemmy on day 1 and come once in a while but let's be honest people haven't migrated off Reddit (and likely never will ) so outside of a few very specific subs there is barely anything for me to read over here...
It's very tech focused over here, but that makes a lot of sense when you consider only tech aligned people can figure out how to get it all working as it is.
I kinda like the fact that it's only tech savvy people on here tbh. Kinda like it used to be back in the day, before everyone in the world and their cousin figured out how to get online.
Normaloids ruined the internet. It's nice to have a niche little corner of the web that they don't know about yet so they can't come and spoil it (yet) with all their endless pointless bickering and recycled political garbage reposting. Long live the 90s web 2.0 revival ๐
That's a really good way of looking at it actually and I agree. The community is kind of filtered by only people who care enough to leave reddit, but also I think there is an aspect that we're trying to escape the consequences of the karma system on posting/commenting behaviour.
I've always thought that having accounts that showed your total number of upvotes incentivises posting the same in-jokes endlessly. Bot accounts with high karma can even be sold to people who care about having a high karma account.
