That's why i don't understand why people just want to make everything reddit 2. A lot of things on reddit are relicts from a cringe time, or some things that clearly didn't work. And still, people don't move on, now there is a time to not call everything porn. Foodporn earthporn, it's so dumb, but people insist. The marijuana subreddit is called trees, so every month someone can make a post about an actual tree and everyone can laugh at this very funny joke.
Agreed. Reddit has loads of problems sand bad motivations. But I think people are trying to turn lemmy into reddit 2.0 because they lost the actual reddit. Sure, many people wanted less nose and higher quality... But that's probably not true for most people that signed up over the last month+. They just wanted a reddit alternative.
I expect that much of the reddit obsession will dissipate as those users settle in and forget about reddit.
I want things to be like reddit but perfect. ok?
Exactly. Me too 🙂
