I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I’ve noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I’ve filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it’s insane. I don’t know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn’t become the same type of echo chamber of anger.

    I definitely don’t hate either of those things, but OP describes Reddit as an “outrage machine”, and I’m just saying that we have the same thing going on here. It’s definitely not as bad yet, it’s just sad to see Lemmy fostering the same kind of outrage that Reddit has.

    Redditors are migrating here, but still bringing typical “Reddit” behavior with them, dehumanizing their political adversaries in comment sections and spewing hateful rhetoric to anyone who disagrees.
