I don’t know if you’ve noticed this, but threads or comments about Lemmy or the Fediverse get downvoted a lot on Reddit and trolls who claim that it’s “dogshit” and “not going anywhere” get systematically upvoted.

Some of those trolls get then exposed when you ask them what Lemmy instance they tried and one of them with whom I had a surreal exchange answered with something like “yeah ofc I used Lemmy, this is the instance: join-lemmy.org 🤦‍♂️

It’s frustrating that these trolls keep contributing to the big lie that “Lemmy is not ready yet” and that there’s “no viable alternative to Reddit”.

This and the overwhelming number of comments being “against the mod protests” just prompts me to question whether there isn’t some brigading being organized straight from the Reddit HQ.

    Bruh you know your name is fucking snoo, right? Might wanna figure out your own loyalties lol

    No I haven’t noticed that because I haven’t gone back to reddit since I left. I don’t give a shit what people are saying there, that’s why I’m not fuckin’ there anymore. Besides, lemmy isn’t ready. All of this is a very long way from being a finished product. That’s not an attack on the platform or the devs making it happen, it’s just reality. You’re not helping anyone by pretending lemmy is something that it isn’t.
