I'm ready to step away from Reddit. I know you can encounter toxic behavior on other platforms too, but I'm just exhausted by the level of negativity there. So, I have two questions for those who have fully transitioned — What prompted your decision to leave? And were you able to get others to join you on Lemmy?

Don't know why, probably some psychological reasoning, but if I show I'm _too_ excited about something they'll actively avoid it.

I have this feeling too. I think that is because I'm not cool, people don't want to do the things that the not cool guy is doing.

People who think like this suck honestly.
