Reddit has that effect. I admit I was a little unhinged when I came here, but either people calm down and start acting like real human beings, or else they realize they can’t have their fun being trolls and they leave. It’s a funny thing that happens when an entire platform is centered around people, not profit.
Bots and ragebait are great for stonks - they drive “engagement” and inflate MAU - so they are pervasive on every platform with shareholders.
Cool, I’ve heard that people love paying for access to their own content that used to be free.
This is a good time for anyone still on the site to share some Lemmy links.
No please. The Redditors that stayed are insane,I don’t want them in here

Very sad but very true
