It feels like people are a lot nicer here than on Twitter and Reddit, and even when people disagree, it’s generally civil and not an all-out flame war. Also, there’s no algorithm promoting outrage all the time.
For me, the anticipation of toxicity was a huge deterrent for me ever participating in real discussions, but here I feel like I can be myself.
I think it’s healthier this way.
Don’t worry, give it time
Just give your opinion on defederatation or Threads and there is plenty of arguments and downvotes lol
So glad downvotes are disabled on my instance. It’s unnecessary.
