This might sound weird but there are a lot more assholes here than reddit.

On Reddit you can expect some percentage of the people to be assholes because some percentage of the population are assholes... but here, heaven forbid you go against the grain of the narrative.

As opposed to reddit, where most of the people are nice and some are assholes, here only some are nice and the majority are assholes.

You're absolutely right! And people keep saying that they're nicer here which is not the case at all!

Counterpoint. It depends massively on what communities you use. So there’s a not so small possibility that both you and the people you disagree with are right.

[-] fkn@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

That's true. Some of the communities are great... but there were way way more, way larger, way more active communities on Reddit that were great in the same way too.

I would normally agree with you, but I usually see this in communities like ask Lemmy. And it's not usually about disagreements. Most of it is people just being complete assholes because they misunderstood something. Now, I know assholes are every where, and that's not the problem. It just annoys me when I see comments like "everyone is more friendly here".
