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.

    They were raised on social media, social media gives a voice to the loudest and the dumbest because that drives engagement. It’s no wonder they are all a bunch of morons when thats the only thing they have known.

    Boomers and gen-x had leaded gasoline making them dumb millennials had brain damaged idiots raising them to be dumb and now gen z has social media making them dumb.

      Totally. Like they live in a world where the potential payout for playing the clout lottery is significantly higher than anything traditional hard work can guarantee them.
