What is the difference between lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works?

submitted by IMNOTCRAZYINSTITUTION edited

I have seen many comments saying that lemmy.world sucks, and sh.itjust.works is good. I have seen that lemmy.world apparently has a very poor reputation among other instances. Why? After a quick look, sh.itjust.works doesn't look much different to me. Can anyone explain?

Edit: many good replies. the conclusion I'm drawing is that for my purposes it doesn't really matter. I appreciate everyone who responded

… the root of the problem is your apparent compulsion to call people “toxic” and “assholes” for having different views.

Ah yes, the "no u" gambit. Classic, deadly, refined. The most elegant of rebuttals. A refuge for only the *sharpest* of wits.

Anyways, do you mean different views like say, someone holding different (and by your own admission, quite common) opinions about how your conduct reflects on your character...?

They're not calling you that for having different views. They're calling you that for making up reasons to offend yourself and acting like a toxic drama queen. And the ratio shows they aren't alone.

And what is your reason for adding your personal attack to this already well populated debate ?

You're doing it again. Me pointing out a simple fact. That you brought up two different things which the author never even addressed. In order to turn yourself into some victim. That is a simple fact. If you feel that it is an attack on you to have that pointed out. Perhaps you need to look inwards.

zante

you joined a debate, just to give your opinion of me.

You should really think about how a fairly straightforward reframing of your actions reads, *even to you,* like an intentionally negative characterization (or even an attack). If thats how it looks to you, imagine how it must look to *other people.*

An account of your actions is not an opinion. Please take the gaslighting somewhere else.
