Whenever I see that I’ve received a reply here I get a little dopamine hit and I think “oh man, time to see what my fellow chapos think of what I’ve said!”. This is even true when I’ve been arguing for veganism. Sure, there may be some disagreement, but it probably won’t be super, dishearteningly nasty.

By contrast, every single time I see that orange envelope on reddit I tend to feel a little pang of anxiety and my first thought is always “oh fuck, what did I comment on again? Am I about to get some literal hate speech thrown my way?”

So yeah, thanks friends! Someday I may even ditch reddit for good because of you, and my life would be better for it.

I already ditched Reddit. I only use that garbage to try to pull people here. Reddit blows. o7

Good call! I’ll probably do the same someday, because it is garbage, but, like I said somewhere else, not a lot of people here play FTL, you know?

Oh man, there may well be! (There may not be, and that’s fine.) But look up Mike Hopley on youtube. He has a fucking 97% win rate on hard and uploads youtube videos about micromanagement tricks he finds. It’s incredible.

Real talk:

I love you comrades. Truly. I’m more hesitant to post here because im worried I’ll be found out as a lib. I’m still on my journey and decolonizing my brain and I just hope you all understand and tolerate me.

First community I’ve ever posted in - I was scared of looking like a lib too. After watching how well disagreements here were handled I thought I’d join in.

Come, join us.

Couldn’t agree more, especially with the point on vegan discussion. Can’t wait for /c/vegan to be created. Also can’t wait for this place to generate enough content to completely pull me away from reddit. I’m already finding myself on there less and less everyday.

Woo! Fellow vegan! I’m glad leftists are so open to the idea, it’s great!

I know right! It amazes me how even casually mentioning veganism practically anywhere on reddit gets you downvoted and flamed while I can have quality discussion about veganism even with non-vegans on here. The difference in attitude is staggering.

I would totally ditch Reddit. But those hyper focused communities with years of information are hard to find on the internet. So if I’m searching for anything, Reddit is usually good starting point.

But yeah I love it here.

That is 85% of the reason I use reddit. For open source and video game things, it’s really helpful.
