Now that a lot of the commotion has subsided I'm just curious to know how y'all are finding the Lemmy experience in general and whether you use it regularly like you did reddit?

I'm pretty far left politically and I can think of a number of similarities between the two parties. The dynamics are very much the same in certain cases but the ideology driving it is different.

That is exactly what I pointed out but people can't take criticism and cannot have a civil conversation. I had to recuse myself from the replys because they were just people attacking and trying to belittle me as a person or my opinion. Or people literally just cussing at me. We all know these are the ways to change someone's mind.
