Here Iโ€™m going to criticize the right real quick.

The right is so boring. Jeeze. Always hysterical. They donโ€™t like information that is rooted fact. So culturally hitlerist.

All the actual left wing Redditors came here. The only thing left are the conservatives who donโ€™t hide being conservatives, and the nazis pretending to be leftists to troll.

All the actual left wing Redditors came here.

Lemmy has 0.005% (no, this is not a typo) of the active users. For every million Reddit users, there are 50 Lemmy users. To try and put this in perspective, if reddit was the entirely of the United States, Lemmy would be a town of ~17,000 people. Or about 1/10th of a square mile of Manhattan during the day.

Letโ€™s not make up wild, inflated, statements like this . We arenโ€™t even large enough to make up a single medium sized reddit community. Nevermind actually affect change on Reddit by way of user migration.

Wow, and it is everything I ever wanted it to be already. It is almost like having millions of users isnโ€™t the good thing everyone wants it to be.

I wasnโ€™t stating that it was.

Just stating the facts. In threads where delusioned Lemmy users act like they are having a big impact on Reddit.

We should focus on our community, how to grow it organically, how do we avoid bot hell? How do we foster something better? Instead of inflating egos and trying to stick it back at reddit, when we are but a blip.

Thatโ€™s not true at all. I know a lot of lefties who still use reddit because their niche communities do not exist in any real capacity on lemmy

Can confirm. Theyโ€™re the only communities I still engage with back there (namely cremposting and wetlanderhumor)

Of course itโ€™s not true, Lemmy is absolutely tiny compared to reddit. Napkin match puts it at 0.005% of the active user base.

โ€œAllโ€ is stretching it, but I think TikTok and the fediverse have definitely attracted significant portions of the progressive left.

What remains on reddit is mostly the liberal left and a few progressives in niche subs.

But if you go to a sub such as r/worldnews, itโ€™s clear that there are no actual progressives commenting on that sub. They either got banned or they left.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
