That’s interesting. I feel like my experience has been the opposite. I’ll occasionally post things here, completely expecting some negative response (not looking for it, but I know how people are). For example, I posted a rant about an issue I was having after switching to Linux. Instead of negativity, I typically get responses more like “that’s a valid criticism. Have you considered $x, though?”, and the conversation continues quite pleasantly.
I feel like reddit was far quicker to jump to “no. You’re wrong, and here’s why…”.
The only time I’ve been dunked on is by tankies when said that RT is pure propaganda.
Otherwise I like vibes here…sometimes the super hard line against Libs and Obama throw me off but an anarchy-socialist so it doesn’t bother me personally. Just a bit confusing when looking at the alternatives at the time.
Edit: this isn’t even really true. I just wanted to say something bad about reddit because they banned me for life for saying that Alex Karp should be yeeted into space and that Donald Trump rapes kids.
Any amount of positivity and fun. Lemmy users just feel so miserable and argumentative.
I mean sign of the times but damn.
I miss being able to make sarcastic comments without someone telling me I’m the sole reason the world went to shit.
could be worse, you could live in a place where people are like that in person.

Edit: correcting hypothetical redditor’s spelling.
You were having an issue, not posting your opinion. What is there to be mad about? Also Linuxers will froth at any opportunity to do that.
oh yeah, either infinite Trumpa-lumpa or linux! so much linux! horrible!!

Reddit is basically facebook at this point.
