This!
Just kidding. If it's any consolation, some people from reddit, like myself, are still trying to learn Fediverse and Lemmy practices but also hated the meme-speak culture of most reddit and the Right-wing politics. I particularly came to Lemmy because it looked like a privacy-friendly place run by and with Leftists that had actual conversations and I'm really happy I could find something like that, instead of the opposite or nothing! So, thank you and everyone else that's cultivated this place into what it is today! I'm looking forward to a place with real discussion and with people with politics close enough to my own, I also hope it doesn't get overrun with reddit's worst qualities.
Hah, not sure if you already saw my comment in the thread where someone complained about thisposting and got this'd, but it always struck me as weird that it caught on in the reddit crowd. It came from places where voting doesn't even exist and you have to make a reply to show agreement.
