I haven’t posted much on Reddit about this whole kerfuffle lately (I feel myself winding down over there) but I got wildly different results when mentioning Kbin/Lemmy on different threads and different subreddits. Sometimes huge upvotes and positivity, sometimes huge downvotes and anger. Such is Reddit when the hivemind hasn’t settled on a narrative yet I suppose.

I can understand why some people get angry, if they personally are preferring to stay on Reddit for whatever reason. These new things “threaten” their comfortable and familiar lifestyle, they’re an “enemy team.” Their anger is stupid, but understandable. I can understand stupid.
