It's my own observation, but a lot of people on Lemmy are smug assholes, including many mods.

Shockingly familiar to early days Reddit. There was a sweet spot before Reddit got as big as it is today. I can't tell you when it was but it was there somewhere.

How did someone describe it? Like 14y/o 4chan users with the cynicism of a 45y/o?

[-] qaz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

That feels shockingly accurate
