Nor am I. I'm also not the sort of person who expresses their comments in absolute terms.
I can see your comment, and I don't think that everybody on .ml is a troll. They just seem to have an awful lot of them, and I have no idea what the reason is. People arguing in bad faith, etc.
I enjoy reading the comments, but the top comments from most of the .ml-origin posts always seem to degenerate into name calling, and very quickly at that. The criticisms other people have called out further down in this thread sound accurate to me.
And clearly it isn't just me seeing this, since somebody is downvotimg your perfectly polite posts in this thread. (It isn't me.)
My suspicion is that there are a few instances either controlled by bad actors or indifferent to them. Blocking those can make lemmy a much better place if you aren't interested in conflict on this platform.
And if you enjoy arguing or just want to hone your debate skills against trolls, you can do that, of course.
You can block entire instances. I blocked hexbear and lemmy.ml, and my feed became MUCH more pleasant to read. The vast majority of trolls seem to be on those instances.
So what I love about Lemmy now is that comment threads rarely turn toxic like they do on Reddit.
China just ignores violations of foreign copyright by their industries. They enforce Chinese copyrights.
That is my experience too. It's because there is no distinction between posts and comments, I think. It's about as interesting as my sms chats with friends would be to strangers.
Isn't that Scientology in a nutshell?
Thank you for posting that. It was well-written, and did a great job clarifying both why previous polls were inaccurate, and why they're likely better now. I was particularly interested to read that the margin of error may be about double what is reported.
You should make this a top level post in this group. It is worth discussing on its own.
...and I like eating all three...

I've been going there less and less lately. They started putting ads in the notifications section as well.
