Then why do you accuse me of faking things when I tell you what I experienced?

Lemmy feels like Reddit when I joined 11-ish years ago. That’s why I’m here now.

Lemmy has people get super pissed if you don’t trout the company line. Don’t agree that threads will be the worst thing ever? Insults and downvotes. Don’t think Reddit sucks now? Sometimes similar. Got defederated by beehaw? Tons of insults.

The subreddits I was active in almost all had less toxicity than Lemmy. Tildes.net is for when you want people that aren’t assholes. Lemmy might some day be that place, once everything is settled, and you can choose which communities of people you want to interact with.

/r/europe and /r/de were the only places worse than Lemmy.

My hobbies deteriorated into memes and low-effort shit every day.

Mine didn’t. My frontpage right now on Reddit has 2 memes out of 100 posts. Both from gaming subs that tend to have a healthy mix between meme and non-meme stuff and the memes are rarely low-effort.

I didn't. You posted a comment and I didn't say it was fake?

Sounds like a difference of opinion

Me: "Not sure what kind of subs you are in, I don’t see that in mine", followed by an example.

You: Yeah mate you found one good comment. How much shit did you read before you found it?

That’s exactly that. You are the kind of toxic user I’m talking about. There’s no reason to attack other users just because you don’t understand them.

And I’m still here because luckily there are also a lot of users who aren’t assholes, and I can block those who are.

That’s called a question. Wasn’t an attack. You’re the one who went looking for an argument.

To date, you’re the only toxic user I’ve found on Lemmy, so well done.

Beat you to it, see ya.
