Better. Not way better.

There's a certain degree of toxicity and messiness that simply comes with interacting with the general public. I'm not sure how one can build a system open to people, yet simultaneously not open to flawed people.

I dunno, if this meme (all be it humorously) is accusing the Reddit user base of having a thoughtpolice that does insinuate quite a large sense of superiority which is just absolute pack mentality. Lemmy is almost exactly and fundamentally synonymous to Reddit, hence a lot of people moved over to Lemmy after the end of third party app support.

So the only real argument one could make in pointing out the positive difference between the two. Is that the users of Lemmy may have a bigger hatred towards capitalism or think user support is more important than habitual comforts.

Lemmy hasn't yet calcified from corporate takeover, this makes it similar to younger reddit, and I argue better.
