My mental health is so much better than when i scrolled reddit. Everyone here is so nice and doesn't talk like 14 year olds with an ego. Also theres front page furry porn

I also find the limited number of posts and comments keep me at a healthy level of browsing. On Reddit I could get sucked down the rabbit hole of even one post, reading comments and replying to stuff for hours. There’s really very little of value that can ever be accomplished at that depth.

Everyone here is so nice

Until you mention Windows.

Even then, they're trying to help you.

Rarely. Mostly it's just anger, which is the reason why some people don't move to it.

Did you find this out by asking them?

This

Mostly it's just anger

Or this

which is the reason why some people don't move to it.

If the first, there are other bad/tracking/adware things that people use and the people that try to help have a helpful tone. But for windows, people that 'try to help' always talk in a blaming tone and act like "I'm superior than you bc i use linux"

Or if the second

Bc you need some help to figure out Linux but if the community that is supposed to help act like that would people move?

I don't think they criticize people for using Windows. I bet that no one wanted to offend you.

People do criticize Windows itself and I think it's okay.

Idk people criticize most of the bad things. but when it is windows, things change a bit.

[–] Shatur@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I think you can find some jerks in any community, it's people. But I doubt that GNU/Linux enthusiasts hate people for using Windows in general. I personally a GNU/Linux user and I never hate people for using Windows.

It's just like Reddit - they have more content, but we prefer Lemmy because of freedom. And we hate Reddit (and spez), not it's users.

I have never hated Linux more than now

Agreed, I went on reddit recently and realized how much anxiety it used to cause me. Fuck that place. There is definitely something to their algorithm meant to make you feel that way.

The front page furry porn is going to turn me into a furry one day...

[–] Micromot@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sadly I can't share this experience, my instance is non-nsfw

[–] HoodieGyaru@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago

Maybe it's time to set up an account in another instance
