MODERATORS
Agreed! I don't use it as extensively as I probably could, but it feels clean and simple.
It also feels like you have a voice that people can hear instead of being drowned out. It may not last, but it's nice.
You know I think a lot of us get so wrapped up in the lack of traffic on this site that we overlook this particular benefit. There are several usernames on Lemmy that I can, not only recognize, but also associate a bit of a personality with from the interactions I have seen and had on the fediverse. I think that's a pretty neat thing to experience amongst the huddled masses of the Internet in 2024.
That's why I feel pressure to add to conversations or content. I'm so used to no one giving a shit.
I also don't always feel like I have anything worth saying, but I suppose maybe other people could find worth in it.
