    I’d say it’s roughly my experience with Lemmy as well tbh.

    There are some good discussions to be had here, but I don’t think they’re necessarily wrong about the issues, just a bit overblown.

    I think Reddit’s far worse in general though. I think it’s gotten particularly worse over the past few years, it’s almost Facebook levels of people looking at stuff just to make themselves angry.

    Half of the /all feed is about obnoxious people and fights these days.

      The r/Canada subreddit was taken over by far right wing mods and astroturfed to all hell with Conservative nonsense and Convoy support. I found myself speaking up more and more there because it was full of homophobic, racist antivaxxers and that is not an exaggeration.

      ~~I don’t see those fights you speak of, maybe I managed to avoid them ? Genuinely curious. ~~

      Edit: I am a moron and cannot read. Thought the poster above was talking about Lemmy…

        Half was a ridiculous over exaggeration, but I see so much /r/crazyfuckingvideos and /r/fightporn, /r/imthemaincharacter is another awful subreddit.

        Recently people were getting whipped up about that YouTube prankster who got shot, it was posted a ridiculous number of times.

          I am sorry I misread your post and thought you talked about lemmy… Haven’t been to Reddit in ages…

          Nevermind my question then.
