Very mature of you to recognize this. I also find myself thinking about how lucky I was to end up here. I easily could have bounced off beehaw and lemmy.ml and gone right back to reddit. I just happened to see the name sh.itjust.works with open sign-ups and the rest is history. Then there were dozens of exceptional posts and comments that drew me into the community immediately. Almost seems like fate.
Except I don't think it is, I think that the quality of discussion on Lemmy, which is of primary importance, is just that much better than reddit. All the bugs and lack of niche communities and everything else that people complain about here doesn't matter to me, as long as I know that I can come here and express my thoughts and really be heard.
