This is it for me. The Pavlovian posting and upvoting of shitty jokes in every. single. thread. I haven’t bothered with reddit’s comment section in years because of it. Here, the comments so far seem chill and appropriate for the posts.
That’s the other thing, people wouldn’t do that if it didn’t get them karma every single time. Karma isn’t publicly displayed on Lemmy, and if the vision of very spread out communities comes to fruition it also just wouldn’t make sense anyway.
Agreed. On top of this I noticed a pretty hard decline in Reddit once the CCP bought a portion of reddit. Keeping business out of Lemmy will keep it honest for sure.
Don’t hold the Ads too high. If server costs for lemmy instances become too expensive, Admins might have to resort to ads and I would argue that reddits ads are way better than most intrusive web apps
For me it is lack of commercial interests (ads hidden in post), lack of bots, and lack of "funny meme and jokes’ posts.

The Narwhal bacons at midnight, fellow hydrohomie
I too choose this man’s hydrohomie
I hated this one the most
The same shitty jokes at that, over and over and over again.

Yes, I hope Karma won’t be as prominent as on reddit, limiting jokes to those that are appropriate.

I missed that, they bought a stake in Conde Nast or how come?
We can always make funny memes
i’d rather have quality content though.
