I am a reddit refugee. Keep seeing that this is supposed to be somehow better than Reddit. As far as I can tell, it follows a similar format, less restrictive on posts being removed I suppose. But It looks like people still get down vote brigaded on some communities. So I’m curious, how it’s better?
I get the impression most lemmy users don’t have a lot of lived experience. Everyone deals in absolutes, and is unable to recognise nuance.
Most contentious issues have a range of considerations, positive and negative.
I completely agree with this observation. Generally if people get upset about my posts here it’s people I’m close to agreeing with, who just cannot fathom that I don’t agree with them on the details.
I keep thinking about the People’s Front of Judea.
