I’m certainly one of those who hope this place will remain better than Reddit, but Reddit had a lot of good qualities for a lot of years.
Perhaps instead of generally hating on Reddit, we be more specific about the negative characteristic we don’t want. Are you specifically comolaining about fake content?
Early Reddit was more thoughtful and the communities were smaller, Lemmy theoretically could be the same, but a big problem IMO is that all social media has blended together and people are sharing stuff they see on Twitter and Facebook on every other platform.
Social media hadn’t been so homogenized during old Reddit, and it was a lot less acceptable to cross pollinate between social media platforms.
The old Internet is just dead, in general. You would have to ban links like this that are just “other social media” on Lemmy. Otherwise, there aren’t really any walls between the communities at all.

What is fake? The original tweet sounds like a lot of people you see on interviews on TV…
Maybe it is real, but it so perfectly fit the LeopardsAteMyFace meme that I have to assume it’s fake.
