Can someone post hate comments so I feel at more normal?

    Ooh look at me I’m a redditor “same poop knife story for 11 years” and how about some “and I also choose this guy’s dead wife for 7 years.” And now I am slightly less moderated, spooOOOooky. Enjoy these Jesus ads we are “serving” you. I once made a comment on the internet AITA?

      I hate that the good ones were forgotten. Ask a pedo, geraffe, grilled cheese vs melt. The guy who cut off and ate his dick.

          The better stories from Reddit. Everyone knows the most recent Reddit trend and the askreddits are filled with them. But the best stories are the ones from 10+ years ago.

          Spanish Reddit is another classic that never gets mentioned. There’s a slew of them if you look at the old “What’s something people on Reddit should know about Reddit” askreddits.

            What does “the better so tired from Reddit” mean? I genuinely can’t tell if you’re trolling me. What you said made no sense. I was on Reddit for a little while and don’t remember Spanish Reddit, poop knife, spooky, or Jesus ads.

              It was a typo lmao. I meant “stories”.

              Idk how long you were on there, but I was there for about 13yrs. and the “inside jokes” can be a little overwhelming at times. The Jesus Ads were the “He Gets Us” ads everywhere, if you never saw one then you must have used a client that didn’t have ads like Apollo, or paid for no ads through other clients.

              As for the stories I’m talking if about, they all happened over a decade ago. You’d have to specifically search for them nowadays because like I said, they never get mentioned in those “Reddit history” askreddit threads anymore. All the stories mentioned nowadays have happened in the last couple years. IIRC, even poop knife is only like 6 or 7 years old.

              Also I’m calling them stories because idk what else to call them. Some are threads, others are comments.

              Oh shit, Streetlamp leMoose was another one I forgot about. Damn, there were so many greats that have been lost to time. The Search and Rescue series on no sleep. Talking about it is bringing up more and more memories.

    Comment on any political post if you desire hatred, those are astoundingly vitriolic here.

        I suspect you just agree with the political zeitgeist here more. There’s extremist propaganda all over Lemmy. I never saw users threaten to execute other people on Reddit, I’ve seen it twice on Lemmy from the psychopaths on hexbear.

          Probably just never saw it on Reddit because of the hyper moderation and reporting (especially spaces that are mainstream politics). I’ve been lucky enough to catch some drama before the entire chain is nuked so it definitely exists. What’s worse is no matter what subreddit you go into there’s hatred of another side (try visiting something as mundane as a ufo sub and it’s crazy), here the smaller niche communities seem calmer and more welcoming in general.

          One thing I have noticed on here is we’re all highly polarized from other online interactions and Lemmy gives the ability to somewhat combat that instinct. In-fighting among like-minded people is usually settled with a “I agree with your sentiment but also feel ‘this’ way”. The “I hate people from this instance”, is tempered with an equal amount of people who just don’t care. I’m not sure if that will be the case as popularity rises over time and the louder voices drown out everyone but it’s definitely made me re-think my gut reactions and commenting etiquette since being here which never would’ve happened on Reddit.

            Fair enough. I think you’re more optimistic about the future of Lemmy with regard to the propaganda on here, and I hope you’re right.

            I suspect Lemmy will continue to flail and probably die because of the political extremism on here, but I really love the idea of community owned social media.

      Ever heard of a thing called Google?? Look it up yourself. It’s not on me to prove it to you.

    I’m a complex person as we all are, but a lot of what I see on these sorts of websites brings out my anger at society and the bad things it can bring.

    So I show a lot of that anger in response, but not right here. I’ve only got one thing to say to you.

    Fuck you I won’t do what you tell me

      You’re using a FOSS application right now, helping it grow with your participation. As far as Linux goes, I think you’ve done your part if you’ve tried it or even just honestly considered it. Most don’t even go that far, and most really could use Linux without compromise for their 100% web browser computer use.
