do you want lemmy to have a different userbase and culture than reddit
or NO
mine is yes, since i dont want the fediverse users to bring their former platform’s bad habits with them
I would like it to, but I don’t think it’s gonna.
The people will create the culture naturally and naturally it will evolve over time and time again.
Culture can stay the same, for all I care. The important thing is keeping the bots out.
There are a million little slices of each site/service, where the culture in that particular community or thread or specific comment chain can differ from somewhere else.
So I would say that no, we shouldn’t make the fediverse a monoculture. And with that diversity within the fediverse, we can say that some parts will be similar to some parts of reddit, and some parts won’t. And some parts won’t be similar to some other parts of the same instance.
Well said, and I completely agree.
I like that Lemmy is queers and Linux and star trek
I am not queer but let’s market it as a platform for LGBT and all the wrong people will stay away
I’m neuroqueer
Is that the sequel to Gibson’s Neuromancer?
I think it doesn’t really matter as regarding moderation, it’s already identical to it.
Reddit has a bot culture. So, yes.
Reddit was an absolute behemoth and changed a lot over time.
I don’t want a copy of Reddit’s culture on Lemmy, but I think Lemmy’s culture will be similar because of the interaction format and because a sizable number of Lemmings I presume use Reddit and Lemmy both regularly. So it will be up to how close the viewer looks to determine if they seem the same or distinct.
I think one thing I don’t see much on Lemmy are the very tired 3+ nested comment chains that don’t add conversational value, like “and my axe!”. I’ve only seen it very occasionally, and usually in good joking taste, for example the trope “[term OP used] means this, you probably were thinking of [also incorrect word]”.
yeah, there is less ‘dad joke’ or ‘pop culture reference’ humor here.
but people didn’t send you death threats over Linux on reddit, like they do here.
Reddit is shit now. At one time it was ok, but now it is crap.
Which reddit are you referring to?
Lemmy users are exactly like Redditors, just way more obnoxious.
I actually find it hard to read comments on here, as a new user

Have you tried running them through a Regex?
Whatever funhole is doing.

Lemmy is going to have the culture it has.
Forced culture is what shaped all the failed platforms like Reddit, I don’t think I would like that.
Yeah, I agree, let’s force a non forced culture, with beans and hookers!
In trying to figure out if you misremembered the phrase “blackjack and hookers” or if '“beans and hookers” is some other reference, all I found were pages for Boston sex workers.
I just fused beans from Lemmy with the blackjack and hookers, instead of saying like beans and deans.
