    I can’t say I agree with the last point. Making a comment on Reddit is a dice-roll of which logical fallacy someone will attack you with. You could say “I like waffles!” and you’d instantly get a reply saying “Oh, so you think pancakes are shit then???”

    It makes it genuinely difficult to have a even a mild conversation there.

      Once I came here, It took me a few months to “detoxify” after using reddit for years. Reddit was bad, but got that way slowly enough that I didn’t realize it until I came to Lemmy. It was like the internet version of PTSD. I’m not as hyper-defensive as I used to be.

      For me this has always been more of a Twitter thing
