I joined reddit on the tailwind, so it was all echo chamber, we hate newcomers, gatekeeping, automod frenzy, too many rulebreakers, too many rules, etc I could be wrong, but thats what I imagine it used to be like.

It definitely feels that way to me. And it also felt like Reddit went to shit so slowly, I didn’t even notice, like the mythical frog in a pot of water on a stove. It took me 13 years to break free. I hope Lemmy stays small to be honest. I’m old enough to remember the Eternal September on Usenet.
Sounds glorious.
I love the saying, but frogs will actually get out of the water when it gets too hot, no matter how slowly you raise the temperature,
