Reddit is so toxic

There are a few subreddits I check out from time to time because Lemmy doesn’t have the volume of users required to keep those niche conversations active.

Wow, what a pain! There’s so much hostility and byzantine rules. It’s just not worth it.

I still have faith in democracy, but I'm starting to understand why the forefathers went with a representative democracy, and not a direct one. This thread is getting so compressed from all the nesting that it's getting really difficult to read, only a couple of words per line now. So, I'm going to say farewell, and it was really nice talking with you. Lets both keep our minds and eyes open, and be diligent about not being manipulated by propaganda. Take care!

That's... messed up. Fwiw, I am using the webpage UI - not an app - and it shows up perfectly for me. But yes, it has been enjoyable to discuss more deeply with you than is usual on a social media site - this is the power of Lemmy!:-)
