First thing I read on Lemmy and it's like I've found emotionally intelligent people finally.
I saw the same thing on Mastadon, just normal people capable of handling their emotions.
Western social media (and television) is promoting the worst in people and it can make users believe everyone is insane. So it's very nice to see this being posted.
Thanks!
It's nice to have a place where I can ask genuine questions without being called a complete idiot just for asking.
I am like a veteran to this site because i joined 3 years before new people moved to here
I agree with this post and I think that its important to have a post like this to remind people.
Lots of redditors are coming out of echo-chambers. In fact most of reddit has become one starting from a suffocating top-down control.
They've forgotten how Reddit used to be and so are astounded at how "uncomfortable" Lemmy is given its NON-pyramid like structure.
The discomfort is how the world and free speech needs to be and I'm a non-white Muslim typing this.
None of us is 100% right so we should always be exposed to other POVs and question ourselves to keep ourselves in check and evolve in objective ways.
I hope Lemmy keeps it this way and the money doesn't corrupt things as it always does. Believe you me, advertisers and nefarious actors are already reaching out to Lemmy authors to do exactly that.
this! I hope we stay such a friendly and open-minded community where one doesn't have to fear to say/write their thoughts.
Good luck with that. Knowing were the exodus has come from. We can start vetting the new users but this is not proven effective.
Malicious reporting can also become a problem if we start being trigger happy on banning users.
That is of course quiet a difficult task. And will be very much in the hands of the moderators. Just like the countless mods that voluntarily keept reddit running. I'am quiet positive that we cant accomplish that even better here.
Good advice for life outside in the real world as well whenever possible. You can disagree without going thrermonuclear.
"YOU" are not your argument. Disagreement is not an attack on you as an individual and should not be taken as such.
Why do you hate me and attack me so ruthlessly 😭
Sounds pretty fascist to me /s
I don't agree with this but I respect your opinion
yes sir 👍
May I add:
Even ChatGPT can get this.
ChatGPT has more social skills than a lot of people do...
Except when it's about THAT topic, of course...
You mean racism, sexism, and homo/transphobia? Yeah. I hear ya on that!
