I've been trying out the other fediverse platforms, based on how cool Lemmy is, and they all pale in comparison. It really is a neat little thing we've got going on.

I really do like Tildes for certain more predictably high-quality answers when its something serious or technical but it can seem a touch heavy-handed. Ultimately, I appreciate the rigor where its important to have that and filter the memes and general+local ~~anaesthesia~~ nonsense we all love and know Lemmy for ;)

Your post prompted me to have a look at Tildes. It looks alright, but a bit... dry.

Its not for everyone and that's part of why its for me ;) Not that I'm elitist or anything, I just hate low-efforts and assholes, ne'r may the two meet here

Yes! Viva la difference! I like that there are a lot of options for everyone, I'd just like some more options that suited me.

It can be. Women or queer persons can potentially have a tough time there, too.

I am slowly looking at other socmed options than the big three. Tildes and maybe Bluesky will be on the list. I liked Mastodon but they muted me so I never visit any more

I'd say Tildes, HackerNews, and Hubski are all really cool and high quality.
