Most of the arguments here are political but the participants are usually different from reddit. On lemmy you get communists arguing with liberals or anarchists or other communists more than you get libertarians, conservatives, or fascists making fools of themselves. Usually it doesn’t move past snark though
I’ve been told to kill myself a few times on this platform, but the moderators and administrators tend to remove those comments pretty quickly. I’ve had entire arguments that I only knew about because of the mod log
It’s like reddit in the olden days. Becoming mainstream isn’t necessarily positive (but still inform as many people as possible about the fediverse, we’re far from becoming mainstream and if it happened we’d witness decentralised open source software becoming mainstream which is unbelievably good)
I’m new to Lemmy, but it seems very peaceful. Especially compared to reddit.
