But I would be lying if I didn’t mention that at least part of my reason for being here is to have a chance at being a part of something that has a positive impact on the world. Wanting to spite reddit is definitely a part of it, but there is also a large part of my motivation that comes from my fantasies about what Lemmy could one day become, which don’t really have anything to do with reddit.

Very well said and some much-needed positivity after my dark POV :D You are, of course, right. It’s not all bad and horrible, and there are a lot of things I enjoy here as well, and there are good discussions.
