I feel like things on Lemmy were pretty chill several months ago, and that’s started to change.
People used to talk each other like they would talk to a neighbor. Now I get the sense that people have become quick to be negative, attack, and not be constructive.
Am I crazy in feeling like the vibe has changed?

One thing I love about lemmy coming in from reddit is that people don’t vote like sheep, so there’s lots of cases where your votes balance out. Meanwhile on reddit if you get even 3 downvotes within the first few minutes your comment is doomed to get slammed into the 50s.
You were saying?

From my experience, they don’t downvote at all. If you ask me, it’s the self-righteous liberals that do the most downvoting.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for equal rights for everyone, freedom of speech and all that, but these people take it to extremes sometimes. Grow up, it’s humor. And even if it isn’t, hey, you have your POV I have mine. I respect yours, please respect mine.
