Lemmy's design is focused on quality content by ditching the Karma farmers and addicts. No more chasing upvotes—people here actually focus on real value instead of feeding the ego.

EDIT: I know there are upvotes and downvotes, but the problem with Reddit is you can't post in most communities if your karma or reputation is bad. This is a big problem because herd mentality prevails there and if ypu have unpopular opinions you're basically censored.

Lemmy isn't designed to milk ypur dopamine with notifications every 10 upvotes, so you focus more on posting valuable cont instead of farming for approval and upvotes.

You mean the exact same stuff that’s on Reddit, often copied directly from Reddit?

No. We mean all the stuff that Lemmy gets that Reddit either doesn't get at all or gets a day later than Lemmy.

“Trump bad! Look at this latest bad thing Elong did!” posts a day is not quality content

This bad thing that Trump did looks like very worthwhile content.
