I'm glad there's fewer 'comedians' here
I'm glad there's fewer 'comedians' here
I was Reddit earlier and viewing one of question subs. The top 5 comments were all 'jokes'.
What's worse is no matter how unfunny the top jokes are you'll get hundreds of cold comments flogging the joke to death.
The 6th top comment actually answered the question.
Lemmy may not have as much content but what is here is so much better quality.
You're viewing a single thread.
Reddit is this weird combo of the unfunny pun-chain dipshits who take nothing seriously lumped in with the "AKSHUALLY" assholes who take themselves way too seriously.
The vibe on Lemmy is much better in general. And when you do encounter a random jerk here, blocking works. As another commenter pointed out, the lower population of Lemmy is a feature not a problem.

Hey, some of us do both at once! Get it right! š”
I always love it when there's a thread about annoying behaviours and people show up to demonstrate that they are the exact thing being complained about š
Well that's not me because I'm funny fr no cap
That is the best description of Reddit users Iāve ever seen. And I guarantee you theyād downvote you for saying it even though youāre right lol
And, this comment attracted exactly the type of annoying users weāre talking about.
So, the replies in this thread have brought about my first use of the block button(x3). Thanks to whoever suggested liberal use of it. Definitely recommend.
Blocking makes the experience much better. People sometimes worry this can create a "confirmation bubble" but the real trap to avoid is engaging with the trolls and weirdos. I wouldn't talk to them on a subway platform, so why talk to them online.
Excuse me, which platform is for trains to downtown?

And when an instance gets too big, smash that block button.
That's the strategy I used... For your mom.
I much prefer the higher mix of soft, sensitive types on Lemmy. Humor really gets in the way of feeling my feelings you know?
Have you tried LSD?
Depends on how fast you block people, some users are going to have a pretty empty experience if they just block anyone that doesnt agree with them on everything all the time. As far as hive minds go it's just as bad here as reddit.
Man i am trying so hard to come up with an appropriate pun right now, but it's just not happuning.
