I'm looking for community engagement without the homogenised superculture. I'd like to be able to discuss books on a small book community without someone jumping in with "I also choose this guy's dead wife" or "not my proudest fap" because it's a low effort way of garnering meta-points. I also like the lack of an account-based point system.
So far Lemmy is delivering and so I'm engaging here a lot more actively than I ever did on Reddit.
Exactly, it wasn't like this before. But the past couple years in every post in every subreddit I keep colapsing the same top comments until I find a decent comment tree with meaningful conversation.
There was also a huge problem with people posting the same comments over and over. After browsing for 10 years you could read the title and assume the top 5 comments.
Comments used to be the best part. So many different opinions, made me say "hmm haven't thought it that way" but now I just say why bother.
