Lemmy is difficult. So much more than reddit… It could be like Linux. Something you try again and again and eventually get the hand of it or accept it. I spend many years going back and forth between using Linux and not using it at all until I got completely rid of Windows. And I do not regret it at all!

But it wouldn’t have happened if people stopped trying to make Linux’s transition easier. I don’t believe I’m harmful to the Linux community. It could be that it would be the same for people on reddit. I hated being on windows, but I still kept using it until the alternative seemed viable to me.

Of course I could be wrong and the community destroyed. But then… a new community elsewhere? I’m an old man on the internet, I’ve seen this happening a lot. Filters after filters after filters and some times the end result is perfect.
