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.

If upvoting the same old joke for the thousandth time is your idea of fun, you know where Reddit is.

If gatekeeping what people post is your idea of casual conversation on a social threaded discussion community, you know where Reddit is.

Is this how lonely sadists get off nowadays? By flogging and abusing words like gatekeeping in public?

Is that what you think is casually happening here? Are we actually waiting in line in a Wendy's drive thru right now?

Are you gatekeeping casuality to me right now?
