For mods: I hope it’s okay, if not feel free to remove it, but as a lot of people were commenting on the other thread while the reason of the change had been given in the top comment, I thought it was worth it to make a dedicated post.

    That’s a good thing. Less argumentative assholes and memelords rehashing the same tired old crap.

      I just got fairly downvoted and made fun of on a post of mine asking about jobs where they dont have a dress code- and someone called me a fucking anime girl or some shit. I guess it was from the Text emojis I was using- but like damn that was my second post here on this site😒

          To be fair I’ve seen the comment, it wasn’t really welcoming.

          People complain we’re only so many people here, but when I see this kind of interactions it definitely doesn’t help

            Yup, too many hostile group in here it easily drown up the good one. It’s especially harsh when people decided to post and all they get is downvote for no reason.

        Paraphrased, “I don’t wanna bed rot at home for my job.” “Yikes, what a main character.”

        There always has to be at least one asshole, but that is everywhere you go on the internet. Just downvote, block if you want and move on.

        Yeah some people here can be dicks. I’ve needed to block a couple people, and join an instance with disabled downvotes, and now it’s a lot better.

        Good news is that here they stand a much better chance of being moderated by competent admins, whereas Reddit admins moderate to save face of their website, not because they actually care about the rules or people getting hurt. Most of the assholes I knew of at the beginning of joining Lemmy aren’t here anymore, they were banned, either on their home servers or by a good amount of the others.
