But on the other hand reddits comments were frequently shallow and full of annoying jokes. I love reading Lemmy!

This. Quality over quantity. There are much more walls of text, but it's filled with information and humanity. Reddit just became another Meta platform, but for niches. Lemmy has great communities, but all are tech and anti-big-corpo related, I feel right at home :p, but I understand that most don't.

Pun threads on Reddit are the worst. I thought they were funny and clever... In 2009...

Yeah, I much prefer Lemmy to Reddit, it's nice to be in a thread and not just see people repeating a load of dumb jokes they've all seen a thousand times back to each other like it gets any funnier the 1,001st time they hear it. And like that's leaving aside how right wing it is and there was always a certain current of racism just below the surface in basically any politics sub and a load of popular seemingly apolitical subs
