i would like to use #lemmy as a federated online tree with different communities forming the branches but it's hard to take seriously when the userbase turns it into reddit 2.0 with literal crossposting from r/gaming; there are even communities using the same nomenclature as their reddit counterparts ("mildlyinfuriating," "nottheonion," etc). lemmy has appropriated the cancer-culture that it was created to avoid.
