On reddit I was a lurker that posted like once or twice a year, but ever since joining lemmy I’ve started posting multiple times a day.

Reddit mods censored a lot of content both posts and comments. That was part of the reason reddit was not a positive experience and became a echo chamber. Lemmy appears to be more like the old internet where there were a diverse community of ideas and views.
Yeah but I’m kinda okay with bigots not having a voice.
I’ve started to see some of the hive mind downvote bridgade come here too. Heck someone downvoted your relatively neutral comment already, instead of taking the time to reply as to why they disagree. And those that do reply didn’t actually read what you wrote and then put words and perspectives in your mouth.
A lot of reddit thinks in black and white scenarios where everything popularly decided can’t have a extenuating circumstance. I am pretty sure most of reddit would argue with their own reflection. Maybe it’s bots, maybe kids. It is definitely annoying and immature. It is hard to conversate in a thread when everyone is acting like a 5 year old not getting their lollipop.
Yeah you’ll find I try and be as neutral as possible, at least within reason. A lot of people are still charged up politically, that goes beyond reddit. Our job as a community is to discourage and report such behaviors.
