Yeah, lemmy has become really good lately. It's generally better than Reddit these days. I tried it a year ago and it was still quiet here, now I see posts with 2000+ upvotes
I'm so glad to hear other people with the same opinion! Everywhere I go I see people complaining about the negativity and toxicity here and I'm like... Where? I've had nothing but positive interactions. I'm really happy reddit went through the API fiasco because I'm having a better time here than in late stage reddit.
It's not any more toxic than Reddit honestly.
It's very easy to filter by blocking out certain instances
As if Reddit was free of toxic interactions lol
The existence of /r/Jailbait, /r/GreatApes, and /r/[N-slur] testify to this.
A lot of the times it's just people with bad opinions that are mad that they keep getting downvoted. I've seen so many zionist accounts comment under these "lemmy is bad" posts. Even in disagreements the comments are most of the time informative and constructive here.
Individual instances and frontends might have something to do with it. People saying they see a ton of NSFW and have to block so many communities, but at sh.itjust.works on Voyager I haven’t seen any of that.
It’s simultaneously open yet curated at the same time and that’s pretty neat!
