I’ve seen quite a few posts on here about how new user are finding Lemmy, but I was wondering how existing Lemmy users feel about horde of redditors descending on their site?

I’m hoping that so far those of who have migrated over are trying to fit in and find out how to fit in with the existing culture, but do people who have been here for a while have concerns about what is to come?

I for one am hoping Lemmy will be a less toxic environment than Reddit, and I’d hate for this influx to ruin things.

Here’s hoping!

    More people = more content More content = more fun.

    There will always be scumbags but Lemmy makes it incredibly easy to deal with them. For instance if someone is harrassing users in a beehaw sub, then the admin can ban them from the entire instance.

    I’ve had an account for a while (not this one) but it never had enough content to really get me hooked like i was with reddit, and jerboa was a bit too glitchy. But i’ve always wanted people to switch to lemmy since i like open source stuff so this is great
