By culture, I mean mannerisms, references and key words and phrases (like madlad, woosh, etc)
Lemmy is a bit more open thanks for the modlog.
We literally don’t know how much is being censored and reddit because mods can remove anything they want without leaving evidence.
I feel like it’s pretty similar but the low population makes it easier to spot repeat posters. Also I feel like the quality of answers tend to better (lengthier, more thought out, e.t.c)
Solely from the parts of the lemmyverse I frequent, yes definitely. People would think you’re quite silly if you talked like a redditor, even if they were too polite to openly mock you for it.
“This!”
“Thanks for the gold, kind stranger!”
Why do they have to say the things? People don’t say the things here.
This!
“One of us. One of us.”
It’s mostly the lemmy.world subs that just feel like reddit 2.0 tbh
The obsession with Technology Connections seems to be unique to Lemmy. I think it’s memeified at this point!
It’s like Reddit if everyone talked about Linux
Well reddit is mostly bots and astroturfing. Lemmy seems to have more common sense.
As a reddit refugee, we have a couple more or less similar mannerisms but the system is massively different. It is intrinsically anticapitalist, not easy to censor, resistant to eee attacks, etc. It is a revolutionary platform which the antithesis of modern reddit. Reddit has started out as true and good but it has been recuperated by capitalism. Lemmy (and all alternatives, as long as decentralized) is the natural successor of reddit.
Lemmy community is even worse because it’s less diverse.
The Reddit bot problem isn’t as prevalent in smaller, non-political subreddit.
Lemmy barely has any communities that aren’t political or tech related.
And most importantly, the NSFW communities are significantly under par.
I know right? Even though it is at times the most active community. Anyway, Lemmy gets brigaded A LOT.
I noticed that too. Hot button issues it gets filled with shills for whatever side. It’s very annoying and obvious that it’s happen because afterwards the interaction will disappear.
They’re different but they are similar. They rhyme.
That’s highly dependent on the instance I find.
Every subreddit has its own vibe. Some have fully transitioned here like linux and some of the meme sharing communities. Many have not. I cannot really think of communities on Lemmy that do not exist on Reddit.
I don’t know if you would count it but wir_iel doesn’t exist on Reddit but does in Lemmy
it’s exactly the same. maybe some of the “reddiquette” cultural problems are worse
I’ve been here for awhile and I’m still trying to learn lemmy specific lingo thrown out like tankie and some others
Tankie is not Lemmy specific
Well, nor is madlad or whoosh but tabkie is used super often in Lemmy
Lemmy has a much higher proportion of Marxists to other users than Reddit does, so the anti-Marxism is also pretty high in response.
i dunno i just shitpost
We have a couple of instances with the same admin/mod powertripping culture and thinking every comment is a formal argument
