This isn’t R. R is shit. That’s why you left. Stop trying to make this place like R. R still exists. If that’s what you want, go back there. R sucked because of the hive mind mentality and pandering for (pointless, imaginary) upvotes.

Don’t try and recreate that. R trained you to write and post in a certain way so that the owners of that private company could get maximum engagement for their advertisers and make money off of your eyeballs. Let it go. Be free. Let the weird web flourish.

    Every Lemmy post ever.

    Man, I’m so glad I’m not on Reddit anymore!

    Hey guys, check out what Reddit did!

    How can we prove we’re better than Reddit?

    I miss old Reddit.

    Reddit is doing bad things again!

    I’m so over Reddit. I don’t even think about them anymore.

    EDIT: Added a few more.

    We need to be more like Reddit.

    We’re becoming too much like Reddit.

    What if we had stuff like Reddit Gold and /r/place?

    Reddit was the only place for true human discussions, and I want it back.

    Reddit was a cesspool of hate and ignorance, and I want it back.

    Ha! Reddit must be SO angry right now!

    We don’t need to go back to Reddit, we’re better than that.

    We need to go back to Reddit to tell everyone about Lemmy!

    Guys, seriously, stop talking about Reddit!
