You could compare it to some subreddits that were private long before the API debacle.
They wanted to curate a very specific community (subreddit) and didn’t want folks with differing opinions inside.

Was this tweet removed? I can’t find it.
I feel like there isn’t a “hive mind” on Lemmy like there was/is on Reddit. Even if just a few folks disagreed with your opinion on Reddit, everyone else felt like they HAD to downvote it too and then the next thing you know, you’re being downvoted to oblivion. Here, it seems that folks actually respect your opinion whether or not they agree with it; and while you may get a few downvotes or more, people aren’t afraid of upvoting your comment either.
Such a different vibe and I’m here for it!
The admin of lemmy.world, @ruud@lemmy.world has voiced on Mastodon.world that we are not going to defederate from Threads just yet. He wants to “wait and see”, which of course offers mixed feelings from folks.
Post quality on Lemmy is so much better.
I’ve historically been a lurker because I’m too lazy to comment most of the time. However, I’ve been trying to participate on Lemmy more than I did on Reddit in an effort to boost the fediverse and really turn this into the Reddit replacement that I want it to be.
Folks want to see an active community.
