    There are plenty of ex-redditors on lemmy.world (myself included) who think the beehaw instance is way too restrictive and overly sensitive. Don’t like the no downvote thing either. In fact, many ex-redditors have complained about that.

    There’s a lot of people who have left beehaw after the defederation, and I think it’s only particular types of redditors who are attracted to the way that’s being run. The 4 mods thought they could recreate default subreddits and moderate it all by themselves.

    I think you’re generalizing way too much, and giving too much credit to us redditors. Most of us ended up in instances by chance. I saw a lot of people recommend beehaw but I didn’t like the atmosphere and randomly settled on lemmy.world instead.

    I’m still figuring things out, but I’m happy where I landed. No plans on going back to reddit either. I also think that ex-redditors need to stop trying to make lemmy reddit. It doesn’t need to be a clone.
