      Yea I don’t know where the “reddit so toxic, Lemmy so good” stuff is coming from. Reddit was never toxic in recent years, just generic as shit with the same comments everywhere.

      Lemmy has far more… Passionate users, to put it kindly.

        Reddit was never toxic in recent years

        Nah dude, you can’t be serious. It obviously varies between the communities and the bubble you created for yourself on Reddit. But even in the smaller somewhat niche subs I frequented had people acting toxic and hostile. And it became more and more in recent years. And I am definitely not talking about all the manospehre, incel and cringe subs. Those are on a whole other level of toxic and at least as bad as similar algorithmic bubbles on Twitter.

        There is also toxicity on Lemmy, too. But you can just manage what you consume so much better. Never encountered Hexbear stuff outside of drama posts for example.

        From my experience reddit has gotten waaaaay more toxic over the last few years. And that toxicity was only increasing. I had fairly carefully curated my subscriptions there too, so it wasn’t like I was signed up to only shitty subs.

      No. Lemmy had a lull in toxicity during the fuck Spez rush, but my toxic meter reads way higher here than on reddit (although any anonymous community is going to lean toxic).

            On Lemmy, the modlog is not hidden and is open to all.

            I don’t know how you’re seeing it on sh.it.just.works, but on lemmy.world it’s a link in the lower right of every page, down at the very end where it says

            BE: 0.18.5 Modlog Legal Instances Docs Code join-lemmy.org

            To see removed comments you would sort by action. Or if it’s your own comments that are gone, you would sort by user. And then just browse.

            It’s sorted by reverse date, so newest are first, but if the removal is within the last day it’ll still be in the first couple of pages.

            I also am fairly certain (but don’t quote me on this) that if you want to see the removed comments for a specific community you should access the modlog on that page, to ensure that you’re seeing the modlog for the instance hosting that community and not the modlog for your home instance.

            On reddit I always would get a notice and explanation at least.

            No, Reddit did not always inform you when they removed your comments; far from it. In the bigger subs it’s actually rare, and anymore they just remove AND shadowban you. Removed comments used to be easy to find, but these days post-APIcalypse you need to run your Reddit user ID through the Reveddit tool to see all your removed comments there.

        I think consenting opinions are even less welcome here than on Reddit. Which is wild, considering Reddit already wasn’t great with it.

      Block those communities or ask the admins of your instance to defederate if there’s not much redeeming content from the offending instance(s).

      I don’t really get verbal abuse but I feel like there are a lot more posts that I click on with the intent of commenting only to read the existing comments and deciding not to comment so I don’t wade into pile of shit.

      that has been the opposite of my experience.

      and i frequently bring up controversial topics here that would get some bigger communities on reddit rabid.

      and when people respond negatively, they are very rarely an asshole about it.
