i’m doing it because I want to make the fediverse more friendly place, in hopes of making it more welcoming for new users, and the nicer place in general. But I wonder how much is just less bots.

    I’ve seen more instances of “you’re right, I’m being a dumbass” than I was prepared to.

    The Old Place put a patina of grime on my soul. People are alright here.

    I agree for the most part. However, in my effort to post content, I’ve gotten more than a few snarky or mean comments about the quality of the content. I get it if it’s not for you but just down vote. You don’t need to make the person feel bad for trying to help Lemmy grow.

    I feel quite the opposite, in fact I’ve received more downvotes on things that have nothing to be offended about while sometimes I didn’t when posting controversial things on woke subreddits.

    It depends where you go, surely?

    I’ve met a fair number of numpties on Reddit but I’ve never had anyone tell me neckbeards are an oppressed group until I came to Lemmy 😂

    Jokes aside, it’s easy to avoid toxic people on here since they usually announce themselves loudly. It’s easy to block users, communities, or even servers if you don’t want to see something.
