I started out as a lurker on here and didn’t really say much, and still really read more than I interact. But over time I started recognizing a lot of the same usernames, and it really just hit me that you guys are some of the most empathetic and loving people I’ve come across on the internet, and it makes me happy to share a website with you. No one loves people like commies, I swear.
On a more personal note, the few times I’ve come on here to rant, you guys have treated me with such dignity and respect, and came with such helpful advice, and that means a ton to me.
This might be a super sappy post, but you know what, I don’t care. Making the switch from Reddit to lemmygrad was the best social media decision I ever made, and you guys have helped me out a lot, just by being a community that isn’t afraid to care about people. It’s wonderful to see on a daily basis that there are communities out there like that. You rock.
💜 Me too! This community is almost the last refuge for me now. Reddit is overrun with pro- 🇺🇦 shills and anything pro- 🇷🇺 or pro-☭ is censored or banned, and the few Russia-supporting blogs are infested with conservative, feminist-hating religious nutter commenters. The friendliness here is refreshing.
