I feel like Fediverse users are nicer to each other and more generous with upvotes than reddit. (lemmy.world)

i’m doing it because I want to make the fediverse more friendly place, in hopes of making it more welcoming for new users, and the nicer place in general. But I wonder how much is just less bots.

Yeah some of the Reddit comment sections I’ve seen over the years have been full of people trying to instigate something.

Most of those are trolls, not the youth.

There's significant overlap there.

I'm probably jaded because I hang out in lemmy.world politics but it really seems more like trolls. I have a hard time thinking that the gen z hang in there
