The whole obcession with Reddit is getting a little too much and continuing it is maybe a bit immature.
I mean, I get it: I've left a couple of jobs during my career (now spanning over 2 decades) because they did some pretty asshole things and I had a choice to move to better pastures, yet after leaving I still had a strong want for them to somehow be screwed for being assholes, kept wanting to know how things were back there and would've been happy if I found out they did go somehow screwed.
So it is understandable, IMHO.
However there comes a point when you gotta mentally go "I'm in a better situation now and they don't matter to it, so there's no point in wasting any energy on them" and stop looking back.
Sure, feel free to tell others about Lemmy (for said others rather than because of Reddit), but stop wondering about Reddit.
PS: I wrote "immature" because as I grew older it just became easier to turn another leaf and getting over the "old place", so I reckon it's maturity, but maybe it's just me.
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.
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
