I certainly dislike reddit but I do like lemmy.

It's exciting watching the community grow and learning together how everything works. So far everyone I've met has been super supportive, I asked a question about where to find mod tools and someone went and commented on my communities and someone else reported them so I could see firsthand and practice!

Made my day that multiple people took the time.

I think as long as we all keep that attitude of community, and do our best to create content and participate, there's no reason why lemmy can't run circles around reddit.
