That hasn't been my experience.

It's still a very mixed reaction if you say something contrary to the dominant opinion.

And still just as likely to get strawmanned if you disagree with an aspect, but still overall agree with the conclusion.

i love how this is getting downvoted lol

the irony

It's not as of right now, but I wouldn't say downvotes are the issue. The reality is that downvote = disagree no matter what rule you create that says it doesn't.

What I'm talking about are the insults, mischaracterizations, and general non productive discussion on comments that others don't agree with.

That happens at times on the internet. I have to agree with the general impression though: I have only been here quite shortly, but the feel seems closer to "the reddit of olden days" for the general tone and feeling. Mostly a good thing.
