Agreed, Lemmy feels like "the old net" in the most refreshing way possible. I haven't touched Reddit in over half a year and I feel better off for it. Feels like I can actually be myself here instead of trying to walk on eggshells to be part of the hivemind.

Opposite for me, this place is way more left-leaning and if I comment like I used to on Reddit, the comments easily end up in the negatives

Join a Lemmy instance without downvotes. You can't be hurt by downvotes if you never see them!

But you can get banned and removed a lot

The best part is the mods who don't remove posts where people celebrate someone being killed, or suggest someone be killed because they disagree with them. The unfiltered bigotry is really the second best part of the fediverse /s
