I'm glad there's fewer 'comedians' here (lemmy.world)

I was Reddit earlier and viewing one of question subs. The top 5 comments were all 'jokes'.

What's worse is no matter how unfunny the top jokes are you'll get hundreds of cold comments flogging the joke to death.

The 6th top comment actually answered the question.

Lemmy may not have as much content but what is here is so much better quality.

Reddit is this weird combo of the unfunny pun-chain dipshits who take nothing seriously lumped in with the "AKSHUALLY" assholes who take themselves way too seriously.

The vibe on Lemmy is much better in general. And when you do encounter a random jerk here, blocking works. As another commenter pointed out, the lower population of Lemmy is a feature not a problem.

And when an instance gets too big, smash that block button.
