So far my experience on lemmy has been users talking about how much they hate reddit and how awesome lemmy is, and shitty awful lemmy users being shitty and awful to me. I'm pretty unimpressed so far.
I am sorry to hear that
Yeah, it's happening to me too now sadly. Also I saw your post that was downvoted and I honestly do not get why it was, it couldn't have been more positive a message
Well, I'm glad you're here. I don't see the same level of shitty users that you have on here but that's really because I don't participate very much because of how I was treated on Reddit, so for me it's like a social conditioning based on always having the "wrong opinion" relative to the hivemind.
I wish they weren't shitty and awful to you, when I read your comments and saw the downvotes, it looks like you fell into a case of not following the community's populist opinion. You got downvoted the hell out of, but nobody wanted to really engage or talk to you about it. I'm so glad there's no karma here at least.
Here's how bad it's been: when I read your first sentence that you're glad I'm here, I read it in Comic Book Guy's voice dripping with sarcasm and a splash of vitriol. Took me a couple reads to realize you're actually saying that nicely. Thanks
