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.

    Yeah I’ve definitely found my voice here on Lemmy… And it might be for this reason.

    I hope it can stay like this…ofc it won’t. But I hope.
