      It’s like we’ve just escaped an abusive partner and now starting from zero!

        That “first night in the new apartment without most of the furniture, sleeping by yourself for the first time in a while” feeling.

          I actually love that feeling except that one time I spent my first night in this prison-like dorm room with dirty walls and no hot water in Japan, dirty sheets and a paper thin futon with nothing to eat and nobody to talk to/no way to call anyone. This feels a lot better than that.

      Honestly I don’t see it as going backwards but unfamiliar. I was reluctant to switch to this style because I didn’t understand it and ended up on mastodon a few years ago into some terrifyingly hostile racist/bogoted/sexist communities. Maybe I did something wrong and ended up in a bad part of town but I ended up deleting the app I was using. So far the experience on lemmy is so much more pleasant lol…

        Agreed. I was an early adopter of Mastodon but I found it so empty and strange. I figured I’d wait a couple of years. Much better now. Already like Lemmy over reddit. Not hard really.
