There is quite a bit of bias on reddit that makes it quite uncomfortable for some of those people. Quite often Linux, Firefox and great open source software is bashed. It can be quite disconcerting to be in a different environment, but it isn't solely because of the views and biases of those on Lemmy. It's also significantly down to the views and biases of those one reddit also.
Yep, bias exists everywhere. There's no avoiding it. Reddit does have the benefit that biases tend to change from sub to sub though. Lemmy instances that I've seen (not defederated ones) tend to hold the same FOSS bias, but the intensity of it varies from instance to instance.
