Reddit is starting to suck more and more everyday so here I am. A couple of questions -

  1. I created my account at lemmy.ca, but most people I have seen have lemmy.world accounts. Am I missing out on anything by not having a lemmy.world account?

  2. Reddit has an offical subreddit for Reddit news. Does Lemmy have any offical communities?

  3. On Reddit, you can’t post on some subreddits if you do not have enough karma or if your account is not old enough. Are there any rules like that on Lemmy?

Thank you!

    But I’m afraid that if someone sees that comment in a list of my downvotes without any context, they will incorrectly think I’m transphobic.

    You could also not care what the type of person who would go to THOSE lengths (see: mentally unwell) thinks…

      When that type of person controls your access to content, you typically are going to care. The people who see those votes are the ones that control if you get to participate or not.

        In a broken shitty community unlikely to contain many people?

          Yes.

          Hell, one of the lead contributors to Lemmy and an admin of lemmy.ml is like this. If that person sees you say anything negative about China, you instantly get banned.
