    I don’t mean the culture. Is that what you mean? I meant the software. The software itself is a clone of Reddit. It works nearly identically, except that it’s a federation of servers.

    That why I said it’s a clone of reddit, and that why I replied how I did, because I thought it was silly that you would say otherwise.

    As for the culture, I hope it never becomes reddit, but it seems like it’s too late. It seems I have to block some new shitposting community every day.

    But I mostly spend my time in niche communities of nice people talking about Zelda or cats, and not about whether Lemmy is a reddit clone or not because that’s a really stupid conversation to have.

    BTW, I think your reply was more rude than me saying “you kid yourself”, but whatever. I didn’t actually mean to hurt your feelings.
