    Dunno if you’re targeting the emotional impact or drawing the line on interaction style - but being respectful and non-toxic does not cost anything more than the opposite. I certainly prefer interactions without toxic noise that have little to do with the people or topic involved.

      Emotional impact.

      I too prefer non toxic interactions, but also try to not build and echo chamber.

        I don’t think non-toxicity results in echo chambers though. The two are not mutually exclusive. Not even directly related.

          Not inherently, but I’ve been in communities where everyone is weirdly positive in the name of being “non-toxic” and it resulted in people generally not voicing dissenting opinions, which is pretty similar to an echo chamber.

          I no longer frequent those places because it all felt a bit artificially happy like a kids TV show.

            This is kind of what I was pointing at. Maybe I didn’t word my post well. English is not my mother tongue.
