Right now lemmy feels more toxic to me than reddit in many ways. I've never been on a reddit news thread where people were openly trolling and posting pictures of pig shit in response to comments they don't like.
Those get autodeleted, or are on instances that are explicitly been defederated across most instances outside of lemmy.ml
Trolls and other idiots are part of humanity and its perfectly natural for lemmy to have its share. Reddit does as well. But taking one sub as a basis to say that lemmy seems more toxic than reddit sounds very far fetched.
