If anything, I feel a lot more calmer and more at peace when reading Lemmy threads. I find the people here are the reasonable ones, and all the other maggots seemed to stay on Reddit. Which I'm super ok with.

Now and then you'll see someone who just goes thermonuclear on the first response to one of their comments, but they are far and few between. They all seem to eventually go back to Reddit, thankfully. Maybe because they can't get the endorphin rush that they crave here.

This period of peace won't probably last long, but I'm enjoying it while I can.

I've followed a link onto reddit a few times recently, and the first thing I noticed was how unhinged and toxic the discussions are there.
