I got permanently banned from personal finance for pointing out that America doesn’t have healthcare and it’s a sad problem for employees who get trapped.
The mod situation over there is getting comically bad. Hopefully this place ends up being much less toxic.
No fuck you :-P
Jk, ily
It’s true, we dont have healthcare unless your a member of congress, old, or poor. And old and poor people still have really shitty healthcare. The rest of us have “good” health insurance where a medically necessary sleep apnea test consisting of me getting to borrow a $200 sensor for 2 nights and a few minutes of someone analyzing the data, cost me $700 out of pocket.
Why. Didnt. You. Doooooodge?! bleh

Haha, a toxic comment. Take that, OP
Botox
Arsenic!
New York “pizza” 🤮
agree, I tried advertising Lemmy to my friends, but when they are showing very little interest in the idea of digital freedom or privacy I just stop trying.
It also doesn’t help that one person in question jumped the (reddit) ship to Twitter.
Someone else I tried playes League and OW2.
I made the decision that maybe lemmy isn’t for everyone. please stay unpopular/hidden and fun.
Wait, hold up, I play OW2. How is that an argument against using Lemmy?
I’m sorry, but it’s time for you to leave. /s
But seriously. It’s not an argument against using Lemmy. It’s more, that OW’s community has a reputation for being toxic and he does not want them on here.
This meme was true a few months ago. Not so much anymore.
Rip pre-hexbear Lemmy, gone too soon.
Nah, it was creeping in before that. Took off huge with the Sync migration.
Yea this is completely untrue now, at least on any post involving economics and/or certain wealthy individuals
Shitty people are like gases: they occupy all the available spaces.
We still get our share of toxicity here. I mused recently that if you’re assessing the success of lemmy/kbin on how close an experience to reddit it is - I’ve been attacked in the same ways by hyper fixated debate lords here too
It’s better, but I still often see posts with massive amounts of downvotes for no reason.
Also this is specific to SJW, but I often see the opinions from the people that are less invested in the topic being pushed all the way to the bottom, due to the more active people downvoting everything. (agora)
Is the goal of social media to inform, or be popular?
Social Media-ites: “Yes”.
:-P
That is racist. People are shitheads regardless of platform.
But I am a shithead, so I don’t care.
I said ‘people’. :)
Shall I dye my hair?
NAH GET A SHOWER
That’s toxic
;)

If only they would… although now that you asked them to do that, they will come here just out of spite:-).
It funny when people take ownership of something they don’t own :-) I thought people wanted the fediverse to grow?
77 downvotes on this post lol
kBin overall seems a lot friendlier. Like, there absolutely a handful of some crappy contrary trolls I’ve encountered, but not like the 8 per thread on reddit.
