It feels like people are a lot nicer here than on Twitter and Reddit, and even when people disagree, it’s generally civil and not an all-out flame war. Also, there’s no algorithm promoting outrage all the time.
For me, the anticipation of toxicity was a huge deterrent for me ever participating in real discussions, but here I feel like I can be myself.
I think it’s healthier this way.
Last week I asked on a game subreddit how to improve as Im new and Im getting killed, people responded with toxicity, so I uninstalled and left a negative vote on steam, lets see how a free to play manages to stay alive without new players. It also made me delete my reddit acount.
