I mean, the behavior of the community speaks for itself. They try so hard not being the thing they ran from three years ago, but in the midst of their attempt, they end up evolving into the very thing they ran from. Its like they just didn't like being on the platform of origin, promised they'd do better, then realizing how separated they are to where they just recreated it by instinct.

Power-Tripping Mods, Gaslighting Users, Immature Moderators, 100 Rules to follow but contradicts itself .etc

I can just go on and on and on. Oh and I don't even care about this stupid debate that happened between .ML and .World because there's virtually no difference and it is just nothing but a sissy online slapfight.

You're telling us we have unrealistic expectations when you've been here for 9 days. Clearly we don't have unrealistic expectations if we enjoy being here with its "limited activity" (compared to reddit). You just don't understand why we prefer it and are arguing instead of listening to people answer the question you asked.

I watched reddit grow for the 13 years I was active on it. I remember when it was small and just a forum like Something Awful and not the monster it became. I preferred that way. Lemmy is kinda similar to those early forums, but with its own idiosyncrasies. Be patient and wait to see if you like it, or fuckin leave, idc.
