The thing I like most about the fediverse, unlike reddit, is that people are genuinely posting things they care about or like, rather than posting to be a karma whore. I can't tell you how many times I've posted in reddit and it instantly gets stolen and used in another sub simply to get easy karma. It's refreshing to not have that here. That's all. Thanks!

I have seen some people carry their karma whoring ways over from reddit. It's been a few people posting the same anti-reddit article to 17 different communities. But, I just blocked them and moved on, I love how I can defederate from users or communities that are filled with low quality karma grabs.

Posting stuff one genuinely cares about happens on reddit too in niche communities.

(looks at dwayne the rock johnson 3d prints in r/3dprinting)
(looks at posts that suggest that someone bought an entire games collection for cheap on r/nds)

I can still vouch for r/daria to not be full of karmawhoring and i'm raising a Daria community here too.
