I feel like Lemmy is substantially less combative. Reddit has become so very hostile over the years and every thread felt like someone was about to start a fight. Not that there isn't any here, but there feels like a normal amount, rather than an over-representation of people spoiling for a fight.
I've said this exact thing a dozen times on here. Any time I'd get a reply notification on reddit, I'd go into it prepared for another senseless confrontation. I would fight with so many people on that platform, and I swear it made me an angrier person. Here, I still go into it half expecting the hostility, but replies are always in good spirit and pretty level-headed. I don't fight with people on Lemmy.
Agree to disagree is the right value to embrace in this kind of situation I supposed.
