The toxicity became too much to bear. I couldn’t go a post or a comment anymore without someone wanting to give me a hard time for it. Downvote brigading, using antagonizing logic to try and bait for responses that they want. The users digging into your post history to bring up things that have nothing to do with, with what you bothered replying to them in the first place.
I don’t know who to blame, what to blame and when it happened. But, Reddit has long lost it’s status as being an open forum to peacefully and civilly talk anything in without someone getting way too entangled with their own self-importance and how their opinions have to be seen as some form of law to be obeyed by.
Pretty much the same boat here. I have to say, it feels more like the place every day. There aren’t as many people or posts, but the quality (and politeness) is higher. Someone mentioned that it’s probably because everyone who migrated here is likely an adult since this is too obscure for kids who care about brands.
TBH, I both Dont want the kind of users that are auful like that to hirt our members, and also want as many rational heads on here as possable, I debate if saying “Let them go to their gratification chambers at Meta” or “as many people, come on over, nobody deserves zuckerberg” is the right call
In a way most are out of our control directly, and some no control at all.
To be fair, @spez can replace zuckerberg and it would still make sense
