This website can be way more toxic than Reddit ever was. Especially when it comes to people who don't get jokes.

I personally haven't found that to be true in the tone of people's posts in general, but I also don't give a shit about downvotes if that's what you're referring to.

Nope. Talking about crap like this which is a very tame example. Just using it as its the most recent. This kind of crap is a constant here on smaller more toxic reddit.

Look at that holier then thou, virtue signaling bullshit response to an obvious joke lol

Can’t see any posts in your link so I probably blocked the person or the instance they are on.

And that’s the secret! 😁

It's because there's a higher proportion of ridiculous, stupid people on lemmy who genuinely believe dumb shit like "I hope humanity destroys itself" so it's hard to see when some things are a joke.

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Or there's just a lot of people who joke about that and you don't get the jokes

[–] Cryophilia@lemmy.world -1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Nah, they're sincere, I've called several of them out. Doomers and accelerationists.

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Crazy. I've never seen a single person on this website calling for the end of the world.

[–] Cryophilia@lemmy.world -1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You've probably blocked them already due to various other shit takes.

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I haven't blocked a single person. And honestly when it comes down to it I have never in my entire life encountered a person seriously calling for the end of the world.

You are getting trolled dude.

100%

The dogpiling is worse than reddit, for sure. I purposely upvote on obvious dogpiles, but it's futile.
