From purely practical point of view, what is the selling point of Lemmy for the average user who does not care about the theoretical benefits of software or the open source software movement?

Assumptions:

  • The average user will never host a instance.
  • The average user is not interested in volunteering or moderation.
  • The average user is not looking for NSFW communities or any controversial communities.

    So far it seems to me like the troll instance here is much lower. There are definitely reddit-esque people here who will reply to comments by demanding that you refute their ludicrous misinterpretation of whatever you said. But overall I think there’s much less hostility.
