You have better self-control than me :) Arguments with trolls in bad faith and trolls in general are ocassion when I’ve downvoted content. Not on disagreements though. Good discussions are how we learn things in my experience.
Yeah. I don’t have the energy to reply or react to trolls. Even in general if I have a difference in opinion, i’ll type almost the entire comment and then realise that I don’t want to have to deal with the hostility that would follow it. Having opinions and difference is in opinions is too rich for reddit. This behaviour carried forward to downvoting too.
You’ve summarised it beautifully. I don’t know how many times I’ve typed out a detailed reply to just delete it at the end because it is too tiring to deal with what might follow. Hopefully things are different here in lemmy or will eventually be.
So far it has been great. Everyone has been super nice. I have never seen anyone be rude to someone else over here. My guess is, the people that grew tired of reddit were ok with it dying. To them reddit had to die so they could move on. The end of 3rd party apps was a soft-death. On the 1st of July we may see more refugees join us but those who like that “reddit” environment won’t leave it.
