Reddit has clearly decided that their strength is as a Generic Social Network, with a priority on content that will appeal to as many people as possible, and be as addicting as possible. I’m a broken record about this, but this is why you see so many negative communities and posts getting promoted by their algorithm.

Lemmy has the opportunity to be something even greater - a social network that is for the users, by the users, and of the users. No profit motive. No doomscrolling. No shitty videos. Just good discussions and funny memes.
