I rarely contribute and the few interactions Ive had on Lemmy have been leagues better than anything on Reddit (or most other social media).
I find most people are here because they want the connection, not to earn internet clout. That seems to push people towards discussion, instead of the white noise I see elsewhere.
Same here. I rarely contribute but have felt more inclined to do so here because when I do I usually get a response from someone that's actually wanting to contribute to the conversation. Everyone has been super respectful even with controversial topics. On most other platforms I would be lucky for anyone to even read my comment let alone take the time to reply or engage by voting. For us old ass millennials it feels like the old days of the internet back when everyone had a blog or a Tumblr for people to follow, ya know back before Tumblr became whatever the hell it is now lol.
