I like that its smaller, it feels like the Internet used to back in the day. You get to know posters better which is nice

    Honestly, I like that it’s Reddit-like. Minus admins slapping [removed by Reddit] onto things and minus the kinds of moderators that make your comments disappear without notice.

    Personally, I wish there were more people here though. Maybe it’s great if your jam is memes and politics and nothing else but I miss the discussions everywhere from Reddit. The not dead communities. Being able to visit the Harley Quinn subreddit in between seasons to still get your fix of silly memes and discussions and newcomers giving their reviews, just as a wild example. Having alternative style communities that are for more than just posting Spotify links to songs. Having more options in general so that if the one community around dealing with a thing that you’re actually interested in turns out to be not on the level, there’s another 5 at least to choose from.

    Also, I liked being able to disappear into the crowd on Reddit. Here, I often feel more like deleting something I’ve posted a couple of days later because I feel like I stick out more here

    Personally I’m not that interested in the technical aspects. I just want a Reddit-like platform to interact with my interests, learn from people, mingle with people from different walks of life to me and expand my mind. The federation thing is a bonus but not what I’m actually here for.

      I kinda like the attitude some instance owners have about communities- that they aren’t people’s own little fiefdoms.
