Hey, I hope it's ok to post something like this here. I just wanted to say thanks for the people here^^ A long time ago I joined Reddit and tried to post, comment and communicate about stuff I liked. Only now I noticed how much I became a lurker over the time because of the negativity at Reddit. Snappy comments, no real feedback but hate, sometimes even borderline insults... After nuking and deleting my Reddit account and switching to lemmy I noticed how much I missed it. People here are way more friendly and communicate politely. At least for now... Posting is fun again, all thanks to you all^^ That's my two cents. Thanks for reading. Love you all, keep safe. Cheers

It's exciting to see the positivity and hope everyone seems to have about lemmy/kbin and the fediverse. I think in general new and smaller social media places tend to have a more positive atmosphere. But it might last longer this time, both due to the lack of corporate interests and just because things can be small and new on the fediverse without it being as much of a problem. The fediverse overall encourages a consciousness of the types of communities you are joining and the cultural differences between them, I'm sure eventually there will be many different communities with different atmospheres and we'll be able to make informed decisions about which to join.
