Yeah I’ve started to notice people are engaging in less good-faith conversation than when I first joined Lemmy last summer.
I think a lot of ex-reddit users, after the initial excitement and novelty of the migration to Lemmy, eventually slipped back into their bad habits from reddit. Reminds me of this this blog post denouncing the unhealthy behaviours that are all too common of online discourse.
There’s a reason hackernews just straight up denies you from downvoting direct replies… and it’s to discourage a knee jerk reaction to downvote anyone who disagrees with you.
