A little maybe, but not much.

I’ve seen people say they left reddit to join Lemmy because of the toxic users. To each their own, but I personally think Lemmings aren’t much better. Some people over here can’t understand that sensitive questions can be asked without bad intent. People are way too defensive about their opinions.

It is disappointing, but it’s the better option.

    Yeah just block em dude. I enjoy your comments. Including this one.

    There’s a fair percentage of people I’d say are mentally ill or at least like you say… Seem to be constantly experiencing the worst day of their lives here. I just block them and move on with life - I’m not their therapist.

    My experience of Lemmy after blocking just 40 or so users, (and shit communities that I don’t want to see posts from) has changed greatly for the positive. Don’t let them drag you down, there’s plenty of room here for reasonable opinions.

      Thank you for this, good to know people enjoy my input on occasion! I have increased my quickness to block. Which sucks in a way because I do want to see even bad opinions (as long as they aren’t heinous), but I cannot be raged at by these kinds of users so often.
