No one has called me a shitlord, cuck, idiot, or otherwise implied I’m stupid for the entire time I’ve used it. It’s great. The tech community on there is really solid, at least insofar as my interests go.

What happens when they do, are you going to leave?

I’ll have to complain about it and have a big cry first, but yeah.

I’m not actually opposed to people disagreeing with me or thinking my ideas are bad. It’s just pointless chaos and no functional or constructive discourse. That’s more so what bothers me about it.

Even in relatively tame topics there tends to be some devaluing interjection of some sort. It gets tiring trying to find interesting content but only finding that, over and over.

Isn't that the implication? If you're on a platform with a lot of low quality bitterness and another one pops up with less of that, just move. If it happens again, move again. It's not team sports, you shouldn't feel loyalty. The only problems are practical, rather than psychological.

It has pretty good blocking/custom moderation tools.
