Yea. Literally every reddit comment I posted resulted in someone replying to me in a toxic way.
I've only blocked one person on lemmy and that's because they were replying to me in a toxic manner. That's the first reply I've had that's toxic, and I nipped it in the bud. I don't care to have fighting matches back and forth.
Have you noticed if you go to Reddit and click on any thread, usually within the first comment thread, someone will be hating on another person? Fuck that.
I'd honestly suggest everyone block anyone who is being toxic. Not to mention, others don't want to see your drama while looking through comments.
I also hate how every post you make you would instantly have an automod comment saying the rules.
That could still come to Lemmy, if posts start being seen by hundreds of thousands of people, particularly if they come from instances which don't share the same netiquette as the one the post is made on. Of course there's defederation to fight that, but I feel like it can only go so far.
