I love that Lemmy has a small, but dedicated userbase and much less flamewars than Reddit. Seems like most people are actually here for good content and not just trolling everyone else.
I also like that the feed just ends eventually and I can close the app instead of doomscrolling through the whole night.
And I hope that toxic gamification features like global karma or awards will always stay out of here. The dopamine rushes from those are just bad for my brain and these features are really unneccessary.
