A little maybe, but not much.

I’ve seen people say they left reddit to join Lemmy because of the toxic users. To each their own, but I personally think Lemmings aren’t much better. Some people over here can’t understand that sensitive questions can be asked without bad intent. People are way too defensive about their opinions.

It is disappointing, but it’s the better option.

    There’s also a certain type of person that just… posts that shit. I’m not saying they’re bots or not bots or any damn thing, because there’s tons of bot spam anyway, but I think you’re underestimating how intensely shit some people’s meme game is

      I feel like the “hilarious chaos” instance was (is? iirc .world defederated from them so idk if they’re still around) like that. They were already starting from behind with such a try-hard name, and then most of their posts were Facebook-level crap. I ran into them a lot browsing all top-hour, and my impression was that the posters were trying but had a… less refined palate than the average Lemmy user.
