Yeah, reading the comments on the linked thread made me curious as to how the other subs I used to visit were doing, and it was so…angry, like everywhere.
Honestly…has Reddit’s vibes always been so negative? Maybe I’m recognizing it for what it is now that I’m not as entrenched in it, but damn I left that site feeling irritated as hell. Lemmy isn’t perfect, don’t get me wrong, but I don’t feel as angry scrolling through here.
(The Gundam sub seems to be doing ok tho, godspeed to them)
They weren’t always as bad as they are now - Huffman has done a lot to make them more so, especially after the protests. e.g. there were hateful trolls who got banned by a moderator who cared about their community, and Huffman removed the former mods (b/c of protesting) and put those trolls in their place. You can imagine what came next.
