    Kinda funny; here on Lemmy they’re appreciated, while on Reddit we hated “power users” with a passion.

    That said, I really do feel like the posters on Lemmy are trying their very best to provide interesting content, and they do this by fostering their chosen communities by hand. I’m a fan.

      Here on Lemmy we know there’s no financial incentive, no perverse conflict of interests - just people who cared enough to build the infrastructure, maintain it, and provide service for others.

      Feels nice for sure.

      Yeah I had a realization that a lot of the things that used to bother me on reddit don’t worry me as much here. Something is fundamentally working better but I’m not sure what it is yet.

      I wouldn’t say we appreciate all of them. Just depends on how they do it. If you post frequently that’s great. If you dump a dozen posts in under an hour on the other hand I think you’re an asshole. All it does is drown out communities. Leaves them dead.
