What does Lemmy have that Reddit wishes it could have?
-
That when you block someone, their comment vanishes from your sight. It is like they don't even exist. That's how blocking should be done. It isn't like where on Reddit, you still have the option to click an icon next to their name and see what they've said that got you to block them. Why the hell is that a thing? Why should we care? If we want them blocked, we don't want to see them ever again, including the ability to re-read what they've said.

Up AND downvotes visible instead of just the net sum.

Here are a few:
- Allowing to hide karma visible to the user.
- Good content.
- The blocking system (Reddit's way of blocking is used to piss people off).
- Genuine debates (as far as that is possible).
- Not being immediately banned from the entire site when an AI decides you did something wrong (I can't back this up but I firmly believe Reddit uses AI to moderate their entire site).

LOL Digg, havent thought about that dumpster fire in over a decade. Wow did they F up... Same w/ Fark, there would be no reddit if either site had some brains.

Reddit as a company doesn't want anything the fediverse has because that would impact their cash flow.

Kids and Teens online is such a wormy issue. They'll be everywhere, lying about their ages, lying about who they really are .etc They're just problematic little liars at every turn, fucking things up for the rest of us, because their parents are stupid and garbage at handling them.
We wouldn't have an issue with social media, with IDs, with chat room or even Discord servers if it weren't for them. Fuck them, they don't belong online. The internet should be for 18+ users. It's clearly evident that teenagers and children in general, cannot handle anything online. And the only reason they sortof can now, is because of the lengths the laws and egregious moderation that consists of the sanitization of online content have gone to 'protect' them.

they definitely use ai for moderation, the reaction is often instant, and the reaction is often a mistake even a dumb human mod wouldn’t make

Only what's publicly visible. Not my location, not when I log in, not the devices I use. My comments, when they got posted, upvotes and DMs afaik.

So many people already listed so many things Reddit wishes they could have so i'm going to say what they wish they don't have, a corporate boot on their throats and a dumbass CEO.

I was permabanned from Reddit for making fun of AI in a lighthearted manner. They wouldn't reverse the decision after I complained. It was a dull response, too, like they didn't even try to look into it; instead, I broke a rule for "inciting violence" when nothing I said was even violent in nature. ¯\(ツ)/¯
10+ years gone and over 160k karma so it's not like I was a noob or troll. I moderated 4 or 5 subreddits myself too, and was a top contributor to many tech subs...

Idk pretty sure it was the adults and boomers that made Facebook way worse. Same is happening to reddit. But of course the company executives are also the root cause. They all add up.

Dude, chill lol.
Yes, people in general do dumb shit, i get that. I think younger ones are more prone to troll bc they didn't grow up when the internet was pure and untamed, so they don't respect it.
