For me Lemmy was my gateway to the rest of the Fediverse. I can say I like Lemmy way more than I ever did Reddit. The people are nicer the engagement feels more real and over all it’s a better vibe. Here’s to 2 more everyone!

Two years for me, too. But I disagree that it's nicer than on Reddit. The way Lemmy works fosters the development of cliques. Also, with much fewer users it makes it so that 'power' users wind up having a weird cult-like following that boosts their posts/comments and suppresses anyone who dares to point out when those people mistreat other people and/or break the rules that are clearly applied selectively.

Feel free to report such abuse on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com

The irony of that suggestion is very amusing, because the moderator/admin of that community/instance is one of those people.

Then report them on !modabuse@lemmy.sdf.org

It's really not worth the effort. Nothing will change, and there will always be others.

I would say it's worth it. Communities have moved to other instances after admin power tripping reports. Users have moved to other communities after mods power trips reports.
