I came across a highly upvoted comment on Lemmy saying that they wished someone would engineer a virus to fucking murder everyone with right-wing fundamentalist views. Now, I don’t like right-wingers and think they need to fuck off, but calling for the presumably extremely slow and painful (as viruses tend to be) deaths of so many millions of people is pretty fucked up and I got heavily downvoted for pointing that out.
Yeah, this place is even more toxic than Reddit. There was a period when it was new that it seemed like everyone was a lot nicer and more positive, but that has ended.
Ahh I see you’re a mod. Of multiple communities. It takes a “special” kind of person to want to be an internet hall monitor, let alone try and collect as many sub’s as they can.
Nope, it’s called growing a thicker skin.
If you get offended and classify every criticism or every person denying your opinion as toxic, you’re not ready for the internet yet. It is the exact same reason why you are being downvoted from a few others.
Honestly, I’ve found this place to be a lot more toxic than Reddit, especially when it comes to tech.

Absolutely. I just recently got roasted for posting a guide to updating the BIOS on certain laptops in the Linux forums.
Was expecting a small number of comments, maybe a couple of questions or “thanks”; nope.
“OP IS RETARDED THATS NOT HOW YOU DO IT!!!” Neckbeards gonna neck.
Noone called you retarded.
Some posts have been removed but also you realise that not everything is literal, right?
Oh, I see. So your claims of toxicity were not to be taken literally?
Turns out they were the toxic one the whole time
Nobody was toxic against you in all 3 posts you crossposted. Some were saying that it is confusing, a harder way to do it or that it didn’t work.
Really?

The more important question is why were you trying to gaslight me? Does it help with your own insecurities?
I don’t really see any toxicity here.
Take the last link for example, where exactly is the toxicity?
Ok. I don’t see any toxicity here.

Most people understand tone in writing.
You don’t.
