When I was on Reddit I felt like my opinion didnโ€™t matter. But here it just feels more open and free.

Reddit comment threads are currently just full of groupmind wankery. I like being on a platform where I don't 100% agree with everyone and I don't have to hold "sanctioned" opinions that are approved by a mod team of 3.

Reddit was so American too, all the arguments and things seemed to be through their world view. The fediverse should allow much more diversity, and be a bit more multicultural

Americans are the largest English speaking group, as long as we're in the English part of Lemmy, Americans will still be the largest group.
