I’m a long time Lemmy lurker and occasional Redditor. Since the Reddit influx, I’ve watched the frequency of shitty Reddit-type behavior, e.g., combative comments, trolling, and unnecessary rudeness, just sky rocket.

I’m happy to have more content on Lemmy, but I wish the bad actors and assholes would have stayed on Reddit.

Yes, I realize the irony of posting this on a new community that’s basically a Reddit transplant.

    Reddit -> Lemmy transplants are circlejerking about how evil Spez is, how Reddit is “doomed”, or how much they hate people like Musk.

      Oh my God, yes. It’s like hanging out with thousands of recent divorcees. They just. Won’t. Shut up.

      It’ll be interesting to see how this progresses but I’m hoping the asshole fraction gets bored and leaves. We’ve always had assholes and trolls but not like this. I’ve been just calling the assholes on their shit, hopefully it helps drive them out.
