As the fediverse continues to grow, let’s reflect on some of the things that we disliked most about posting/lurking on reddit and what we can do differently now that we have a chance to build something new.

    Probably habits will get imported, maybe isn’t even such a bad thing, at the end of the day, a reddit alternative is what you want, a reddit alternative is what you will get.

    Obviously we should seek towards creating healthier and way less toxic communities anyways.

      this is the main thing I want from a “reddit alternative”, but since all the kbins/lemmys are being treated as “reddit alternatives” I really don’t see this happening

        I think it could happen. Everything being federated means it gets spread out a hell of a lot more, so it may make it more difficult for such stuff to gain traction

        I would add greater actual engagement between people, like is occurring here, to that. Probably the two go hand in hand.
