When I was on reddit I wasn't exposed to so many people with extreme absolutist views who will stop at nothing to maintain the echo chamber.

Very few people here are able to make concessions.

I just feel like every time I get on here I go away angrier. We won't attract new users if we're like this

Maybe you're in the wrong communities. There are a lot fewer people here than on Reddit, so you'll run into the same people more frequently.

I'm not sure what concessions you're looking for. If someone is being a troll, or just boneheaded, block them for a month or two or forever.
