Reddit community is probably the worst and most toxic group of people I’ve ever had the displeasure of interact with on my life.

It’s nearly impossible to have a serious discussion without a single rage bait comment.

I tried for the last time talking about a theory I made up, pretty serious post and a little long, then I go back to read if someone kindly tried to argue or show reason in the comments, the first comment I see is:

You don’t have a theory, you have a fantasy

It’s just insufferable, I don’t know why I keep interacting on that shitty platform.

While it’s true you see the same behavior on Lemmy sometimes, it’s incomparable to Reddit. I truly hope there’s not a mass migration from Reddit to Lemmy in the future or it’s just the beginning of the end for Lemmy as well.

I’ve seen some Reddit-like toxicity here a few times but it was pretty rare overall. It’s a reasonable decent place to discuss and interact with others.

    I also like to help people there, but it’s not even worth it anymore.

    Sharing solutions or creating content on Reddit just helps to keep the platform relevant.

    Once people see there’s no value on Reddit they’ll go after different platforms, some of them naturally finding Lemmy.

    I like to help people but on this context it’s just not worth it.

      Right, so after 15 years of doing that I was banned for wishing the president would have a heart attack. So I haven’t really been back to help out haha.
