What bad habits of reddit's userbase have you noticed on Lemmy sites? (lemmy.ml)

NO POLITICS.

Almost inevitably, most of the people joining Lemmy instances are former-reddit posters those who consider it a 'reddit clone' as opposed to an independent link aggregator site. This can be seen in the most popular communities (simply recreations of existing reddit subreddits), terminology (people saying 'sublemmies' or 'subs') and most importantly, habits.

What social habits have you seen that are commonplace on reddit but should really be discouraged among users moving to here?

Super late response, iirc I was trying to get a lga 775 back up and running with whatever I found lying around, the posts were ancient, of the sort you mutter to yourself 'usersoandso' how did you fix it', and they left without sharing their enlightenment with the rest of the internet.

Same here, especially since I'm sharing Reddit with at least 3 other people and we all have to be wary of getting banned.
