Welcome to Lemmy :)
I find it way more easy to have civil interactions with people here. On reddit, I would either get ignored or discussions would turn to shit. Lemmy is actually way more fun to use, it just need a bit more of content.
I remember I asked a question on reddit about how I can go about getting water to be testing in parts per a trillion.... Lol half the comments told me to fuck off and some of them DM'd me and they told me they would lynch me... maybe its cause Im Black and I did post pictures of myself onto my reddit account.
But wooow....
I didnt even get the question answered at all!
Yeah, well, fuck you
Oh yeah?!? Well, brexit!
Well, well, ah fuck it, we'll probably rejoin in a few years with fewer concessions and I'll have to listen to even more nonsense.
You should ditch the freedom units for KM/h too... If not, pretty soon it'll be color, neighbor, trunk, etc.
Lost redditor?
No, just a joke.
It is clearly a joke.
From what I see, you get at least 50% of the jokes you read.
🤔
