    That used to be the case on reddit. These days you have to scroll through hundreds of lame jokes to find an actual discussion.

      As far as I notice, puns are an important aspect of English-speaking culture, so I understand that and I’m ok with that. At least for me this “actually…” moment is always worth the scrolling effort :)

        There’s a time and a place and it’s not just wherever you can shove one in.

          It’s just the nature of a completely open and well known forum, I am okay with that. If I want a more edifying conversation, I would look elsewhere anyway.

          The complete openness to thought both beautiful and disgusting is what provides value to reddit, and will eventually provide value to Lemmy. It will be even better on Lemmy because instances that are aligned or adjacent can remain “friends” or federated so the users van easily maintain their echo chambers and create accounts to explore outside of them.
