I agree. I lurked Reddit more because every post was met with someone trying to create an argument. Either they disagreed with what I said, made up a different point and disagreed with what they thought I said, or if they couldn’t find anything else, corrected grammar.
It’s enough to make posting not worth the hassle. It wasn’t like that before. Lemmy seems to be more like Reddit in 2012 or so. I’m definitely all for it!
Also, the larger point of if people will leave Reddit: I imagine most will stay. Because most people were still getting ads and don’t care. Most people get inundated with ads all over the Internet and don’t understand that it didn’t use to be that way, and a little tinkering can prevent it in the first place. So they probably don’t notice, and won’t notice the unmoderated bots either.
But I don’t know that those people helped move discussions, either.
