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

Both Lemmy and Reddit are mostly echo chambers. If you don't agree with the hive mind, you're down voted.

If it was an echo chamber, no one would be disagreeing in the first place.

If they do, they get down voted.
