    I’ve seen this a couple of times on reddits r/all front page

    People like to say that lemmy is a better alternative or much more different with its userbase than reddit but I’ll say that’s rather the opersite it’s got pretty much the same userbase from reddit plus alot of people whom have been banned which makes the stuff you do see here alot less welcoming and alot more poloarising it alot of the content I see on all is tankie or extreme alt left memes I get comedy is subjective and all but me personally im surprised anyone finds any those memes funny most unfunny memes I’ve seen in my life and reposts like this sprinkled in with a shit ton of rage bait news articles

    You can take a redditor from reddit but you can’t take the reddit out of the redditor

      I’ve spent the past 2 days being called names because I am having an issue with download speeds in Linux, and I said Windows is better because in my experience it just works.

      Someone literally told me to apologize for saying this, lmao. I’m called an idiot, moron, that I am the problem, all because Linux refuses to work, and the hardcore FOSS/Linux Lemmy community can’t handle it.

      This place is so tiring. Reddit users were toxic, but Lemmy users are even more so. I guess that’s what happens when you get all the banned people, like you said, and a group of people who hate Reddit, in one place. Lemmy reminds me of VOAT. Instead of insane right-wing hate, it’s just insane hate to anyone who dares pay money for something, or says something negative about FOSS/Linux.

                Look I’m not going lie lol i have no idea what is going on here mate all I’m going say is good luck mate linux can be janky as fuck but when you get shit running well custom rice all your programs running well it’s perfecto and well worth the time and effort

                Although if you don’t have the time or effort to go though all this then just use windows whatever works for you mate check our tiny10 if I were you
