    I’m pretty happy with everything here. I think that, my major concerns are just trolls and such. Since what I remember of the DT was a lot of really welcoming folks (even now here while I stopped being active in the DT it feels like this place is safe… a safe space as one would say), but when it came to posts on the subreddit at large there were just some horrible and mean people, especially when it came to threads about the current climate/the American culture war they’re trying to bring here.

    Obviously, everyone has a right to their opinion, just as I do. But a lot of those would get ugly, luckily they’d be pretty downvoted quick. But other than that, it’s a pretty simple rule list that makes sense. And I’m sure you folks on the admin team will edit the rules with enough warning if something comes up!

      It’s been suggested that the extra technological hurdles for accessing this site actually prevents that toxic culture and the people who promote it, from bothering to show up.

        Yeah, that’s what I reckon too. Besides Lodion did mention that he was looking to (or already done it) add barriers to stop the trolls and dickheads.

      Agreed. I remember the first time i was on the melbourne sub like 6 years ago and the users were evil, ive blocked them till this day. Only came back during lockdowns and found dt was a much more decent, totally diff kettle of fish

        I mean most of the people in the sub were decent people. It’s just the trolls and such who feel embolden to say some choice words that concerned me, but they were downvoted pretty easily anyway.
