    I actually think this might be good, imagine communities that will benefit from the involvement of professionals like therapists or nutritionists (like for stopping to smoke or drink alcohol or losing weight). If it has a market a lemmy alternative for that i think is definitely on the table.

        I disagree. The Reddit community at large is a bunch of spiteful shitposters who’ll spin anything and everything you put infront of them. They’ve done this for years.

        In my experience lemmy users are worst on average , but maybe it depends on what kind of sections of lemmy and reddit you use.

        There are other places out there that are more knowledgable and credible than Reddit pretends to be.

        the benefits of communities of practice for learning are documented in research, in terms of communities of practice for self improvement for example i found nothing better then r/selfimprovement (and i spent a fairly large amount of time trying to find one). It’s very helpful when people just share what helped them.
