It's nice how many threads I actually open to read the comments on here, on Reddit I regularly scrolled past 20 or more posts before finding something interesting again, on lemmy it's every 2nd thread or more

This has been my experience as well. I would venture into Reddit comment sections sparingly. It's not like you find a lot of quality discussion in there anyway. Just rehashed jokes, puns, and comments aimed at appealing to the audience to earn more points. I spend way more time in the comments here. I'm just trying to shake the lurker mentality and get back into contributing.
