This is a website for people who think reddit is too conservative for them.

  Really? My impression is that everyone is welcome. The only way I could imagine someone ending having a bad time there is to be hostile to other users.

    I’ve been a part of a lot of online communities going back 20 years. The fediverse had the most off-putting user base of any I’ve experienced so far. I liked the whole decentralized idea, but the users and culture drove me away.

      What's the user culture like? I haven't had time to check it out myself.

        It depends a lot which server you join, https://beehaw.org https://beehaw.org it's very welcoming, https://lemmygrad.ml https://lemmygrad.ml is full of tankies that hate the West (supposedly it's about communism, because original creator is a communist, but it's more pro Russia pro China, anti US and in support anything the West doesn't support and vice versa). If you go to https://lemmy.world https://lemmy.world (the biggest server) you'll see mostly memes. Though you can subscribe to different communities and customize your experience, often what you can experience from specific community depends on which server it is located. https://programming.dev/ https://programming.dev/ and https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/ https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/ might be good for technology related communities.

      Tildes is not part of fediverse. As for fediverse a lot of depends on the server you chose, for example https://beehaw.org https://beehaw.org is much friendlier.

      Fediverse is split along cultural lines so you might want to check out the other half (freespechextremist, poast, etc.) if the "official" instances are not to your liking. Of course being split means that BOTH sides are more extreme than the average user would be on a shared platform.
