MODERATORS
In my experience, Lemmy users generally seem to be more mature (with significant exceptions), but “mature” certainly isn’t a synonym for “smarter”.
Plus, reddit is SO EASY to make fun of. They might as well reward people with terrible ideas and their most obnoxious users. Spez, for example.
It's just the program that America is run on. The social programming has specific guidelines.
I don't think so.
Colonial Americans saying they’re smarter than the British.
“Dude, you were British, we all were!”
Smart enough to stop being British
points at the usa president in 2025
Smart? Not even remotely.
Uhm... the brits have a long string of horribly incompetent (and evil) PMs and the royal family is the same level of inbred rapers of children so...
Let's not try to compare the two and acknowledge we are both horrifically imperialist nations with self destructive tendencies who just happen to be at different points on the curve.
A lot of them are, the ones that aren't bots and propoganda alt accounts, but a lot of them are also only here because they would be / were banned from Reddit.
Piefed master race tho
Or left as Reddit burned down. Not everyone needed a ban to look elsewhere, we just needed an elsewhere to find.

Given that Reddit started banning people left and right, I don't think the "banned from Reddit" bagde is one of shame.
Hey I was banned by my own volition 😉

Literally anybody who is part of any group ever:
Lemmy users are smarter, because they literally got off the bandwagon and followed what they believed in.
Active users not reactive. And that is not only when using platforms. People that use Lemmy and well rounded.
It's like an oasis that is free to enter, but only for those that realized they were in a cage.
Ah yes well rounded with the 5 essential daily content groups: Linux, comics, Star Trek, lefty or tankie politics, and of course beans.

God I wish I could that. Unfortunately I lack both the length and the dexterity.
Lemmy users are just Reddit users but displaced.
It really depends on which time period you mean.
2010 reddit users? Pretty smart. Lemmy today feels kind of like 2010 reddit.
Reddit today? Well.....it's bots.
Tautologically we are though. Staying on reddit is stupid.
