  • Agreed on all fronts and the one dude theory is certainly possible, although the flood of hateful comments was jarring. Karma has never mattered to me but -305 overnight was nothing short of impressive.

    I came to Lemmy expecting better honestly but so far my experience has been a more volatile version of Reddit. You’re right though, it’s an interesting frontier. I hope more rational “free-speech within reason” instances pop-up at some point because so far the ones I’ve heard of were defederated from popular ones.

    I wonder if kbin is any better.


  • I just got railed in a shitpost community for being a gay Christian and discussing my views honestly. It got so bad people were implying I said stuff I didn’t lmao.

    I mentioned the people who protest pride with hate signs and megaphones and someone tried to turn it around and say I was calling gay people bigots. I replied saying they misunderstood me and explained what I meant and they were upvoted and I was downvoted.

    It was so unhinged a mod basically stepped in saying they wouldn’t remove all the comments harassing me because apparently they were being “civil” but imo it was far a far cry from civil at all.

    So here I am now with the app I’m using saying my comment “karma” totals -305, not that I care. But Lemmy users are absolutely mental, even when compared to Redditors because at least Reddit enforces its rules.
