I totally relate to this. I didn't like the environment on R*ddit, but here people are much nicer, so the addiction is even worse!

Guys, if you have asthma, ignore Lemmy at all costs. Everyone's breathtaking.

How do you know? I could be just a random, irrelevant nobody

[–] pyska@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 year ago

If you think about it, being a nobody is the best thing you could be. You are not drawing attention to yourself, you are living in harmony with the environment. That's pretty cool. Breathtaking, even! :)

Get off my lawn!!!

There, did that help?

[–] flameguy21@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

You asked nicely, so I'll just get off your lawn. Sorry.

My only complaint is it's a bit more meta here, but that's understandable given its growth and why it grew (reddit's poor decisions)

Yeah, I wasn't really using Reddit much before Reddit had its meltdown and the threadiverse exploded onto the scene. I've had a lot of fun here. Frankly I think I understand how the threadiverse works more than I understand how Reddit works.

I've had a similar experience with Mastodon. Wasn't a big Twitter user, but now I'm more active on Mastodon than I ever was on Twitter. On each of multiple Mastodon accounts.
