Over the last week or so I have noticed that I have a lot more fun engaging in discussions on here as opposed to reddit.

On reddit i always felt like i was shouting into the void and there was nobody listening, which resulted in me becoming a lurker for the last 12 years.

Maybe it's the small size of this community, the lack of karma farmers, that I've finally lost my mind or a little bit of all of the above, but this place just feels like something special. I'm really looking forward to building the fediverse with all of you!

Casuals/normies ruin everything. Every social media platform deteriorates over time as more people join. At the moment, the majority of people here are actually genuinely interested in civil discussion and debate and the people who just spam low effort comments and karma farm remain on reddit.

Reddit has a high percentage of bots and shills so this is still real people thus more welcoming.

@Deralax and you can interact with people outside of kbin too. The fediverse really is awesome.

I've been feeling the same way. It's why I've been much more active in comment chains and why I've replied to a lot more posts, though I still have a bit of trouble with actually posting.

It does feel a bit better, but I still struggle to contribute. It feels like it's a bit noisy still - maybe I just need to reduce how much content I'm subscribed to.
