I've had a great time here. The people on the various communities I've joined are very nice and actually constructive! I haven't encountered any rude or sarcastic responses or one word answers.

I've had really cool conversations and I haven't been told anything toxic or given any anatomically impossible suggestions at all! I really see a difference between here and Reddit.

What particularly amazed me is the lack of knock down dragouts on the Politics and News communities on Lemmy.

People bring up their points of view even if they have contrasting arguments siting historical precedents to support their side of the discussion.

I'm excited to see your experience as well?

I'm really glad to be a part of Lemm.ee and thank you very much /u/sunaurus for making this instance! :D

I think Lemmy definitely has potential, but I feel like the biggest obstacle for mass adopters will be the sign up process. I personally felt a bit of choice overload when picking which instance to sign up on, especially considering how many of them are the exact same. Now that I'm in, though, I definitely feel more at home than I do with Mastodon and Kbin. I'm excited to see where this goes

I agree, I think a "fuck it, pick one for me" button would be great for newcomers. Just gotta make sure the randomized list only contains vetted / reliable instances that wont go dark after 2 days of experimenting.

Agreed! I wish an app could've just forced me to join a general instance.
