Reddit was fairly small for a very long time. A far cry from being the front page of the internet it now proclaims to be. It felt way more personal back in the day.
true. I think ppl are also nicer to each other in the fediverse because it is smaller and therefore can’t afford such a harming habit like on reddit (not everyone there ofc).
Generally I agree but also I’ve noticed some pretty hardcore things have fostered here as well and if you don’t immediately fully support these dogmatic views then you may as well be Satan incarnate. Naturally it’s tribalistic like all other human endeavors, political, religious, cultural, or otherwise and of course any other platform. It makes sense, most people operate in those mindsets, and actual unconditional compassion is far and few between.
Tldr: we like you so long as you completely agree with our views and anything not in absolute agreement will be downvoted to hell. Even questioning things is bad.
