I’m sure it’s not going to last forever as this site grows in popularity but I feel like I can talk about whatever with minimal judgement here (and just overall no anxiety in comparison to everywhere else), just nice vibes all around ^^

    Yes, I have been a social media lurker just because I felt like there was some nefarious corporate entity trying to profit off my engagement, but it is nice to feel “free” here. Fediverse is the real Web3!

      Exactly and I also wondered sometimes “am I even talking to a person here”. So often posts make it feel like they are pushing an agenda rather than a legit discussion.

    Same. I don’t lost a lot but I’m happy to comment more because people seem like they genuinely want to talk or get info here. Likewise I’ll read longer comments and articles here (assuming I have time) for the same reason.

    This community feels a lot more thoughtful than most, doesn’t it? I have enjoyed reading everyones perspective immensely. I try to comment but honestly, I feel like most of the comments are so well thought-out that I don’t have a lot to add. It’s nice.

      For me the absence of downvote has lowered the barrier to comment. On reddit I felt the same as you.

      On another note, your account details say you are a bot? Account name with a "bot account" suffix.
