Been transitioning from Reddit, and Lemmy is such a godsend.
No more subreddit hoarding and mod abuse (mostly). The decentralization makes it nearly impossible to exploit and abuse.
I finally get to create a community that isn’t a bunch of subreddits controlled by the same mod network. Working hard to build it up from scratch (and unapologetically taking inspiration from the good posts in each subreddit).
Is there a convenient way to find communities related to the subreddits I’m subscribed to, without manually searching for them? Looking for some kind of smart pseudo-import/export feature.
I also didn’t mention that the blahaj admins never asked about banning half the users off of the most popular community in the instance.
But yeah the fediverse is better than reddit, just commenting that internet janitors will trip on the smallest amount of power. But it is nice the structure of these spaces can allow communities to grow past the inevitable petty power trips.
