100%. the level of comments kbin are blowing my mind, actual discussion. debate. different perspectives. people writing full sentences and explaining their thoughts.

instead of people being banned and insulted for having a differing opinion. or being told they are mean and bad people.

the 3rd grader level of discourse on reddit didn't exist 10+ years ago. it happened only after the site because a household name.

Maybe it's silly, but i love that I haven't seen a single one-word reply such as "*their".

EDIT: omg, what about those infinite threads of "this" or forced puns? Haven't seen those either (and I love bad puns, but those usually contributed very little)

I mostly agree, but I do think there's a certain sense of collective accomplishment when you pull off a 37-deep comment thread with lines from a song or whatever.

Also: This was a triumph.

Could 100% tell it was going to hell the past while, knew it was mainstream for several years now, ever since I started hearing radio hosts talk about Reddit. However, a few months ago I was helping my mom with something, and I glanced at her phone to see Reddit open. That's when I thought "Oh. Reddit's over".

Reading those comments in the threads OP posted reminded me how childish and toxic Reddit is. I haven't touched Reddit since this whole thing began and I've really been enjoying my time here on kbin. People actually communicate here. Those threads are typical Reddit downvote dog piling bullshit. It's so stark to me now after being away from it for awhile.

@[email protected] people have got used to the manipulative toxic mainstream social media and their ads and algorithms, that when they join fediverse or Thread inverse, they rediscover that none of that crap is really necessary and they were imposed on us so long ago that they felt normal. But they are not
