Why are you trying to contribute to Reddit by posting / voting?
To fight disinformation as much as I can. I see it, I downvote it. I see something patently false, I correct it if I’m educated enough on the subject.
I get upvotes, which means people see an agree. Maybe some of them are people who are seeing the info for the first time and I’m helping guide their views in the right direction.
I’m contributing less and less though. I mostly use Reddit for news that doesn’t get posted here. Or to read top comments that outline what the news really means and provide deeper context. Because Reddit has more users than Lemmy, you see more of those informative comments. Hopefully Lemmy truly replaces it someday, but we’re not all the way there yet. I’m definitely seeing more Lemmy activity than when I joined 1.5 years ago though.
