Now that a lot of the commotion has subsided I'm just curious to know how y'all are finding the Lemmy experience in general and whether you use it regularly like you did reddit?

I haven't completely switched to Lemmy yet. I don't get as much of a diversity of views here.

But apart from Political stuff, I think the people here are wonderful and actually helpful.

This might not be an alternative to reddit and gain millions of followers, but nonetheless, It's good in it's own way. Edit: So many likes, did I mention I am somewhat conservative and don't support abortion after 5 months? Shocking, now downvote me I guess

I understand the political stuff. I made a comparison that the Democratic party is very similar to the Republican party in a few ways and ended up getting a death threat. It's a cult I tell ya.

I'm pretty far left politically and I can think of a number of similarities between the two parties. The dynamics are very much the same in certain cases but the ideology driving it is different.

wtf! that's no joke, stay anonymous my friend. What the dick that guy must have been!

I am still pretty new to this and didn't realize you could be anonymous. Now I have found that and you have made life easier. Thank you.
