MODERATORS
I think people are more encouraged to participated on lemmy than they are on reddit. I used to be able to make posts on a reddit community of 10s of thousands and never get a response. It almost never takes more than a few minutes here. Moreover, Reddit is spilling over with bots and has been for years and the responses you'd get to a post or comment are often obiously reflective of this.
There's no better way to stifle a discussion than to see there's 10k+ replies already. Pissing in an ocean of piss.
Can’t agree more.
It takes a little more effort to make an account and even know that lemmy exists. That probably dissuaded a lot of casual creepers.
