The community here is worse than Reddit tbh. I think people here are actually meaner and ruder than on Reddit, regardless of the “white knight” mentality here.
Reddit was full of bots but the people are just savvy enough to make an account. Lemmy’s users are not a general representation of the public, but more of the technical kind. You can probably describe most users just by the most popular posts and interactions here. So…
Male
Atheist
Liberal
In their late 20s but majority in their 30s, with a large amount of trekkies in their 40s for some reason.
Pc technical, can use a pc well enough to understand above the basic concepts of the best buy laptop the general public use.
Too involved in the world affairs causing rigid pessism of most people who don’t share their views. If you don’t think like us you’re one of “them”.
Oh and anonymous keyboard warriors. Everyone can be a “professional” on a subject if they can dissect a comment someone made and Google any relevant information to refute their arguments. It’s pretty much this that makes them ruder.

Ugh Lemmy’s turned into the worst part of reddit faster than reddit did.

Yea. That all seems right ha. I agree.
I feel attacked, yet also acknowledged.
100%
Who could have known the *nix community could be so insular and gatekeepy
Tell me more about the worst parts of reddit, what to look out for.
Look out for cringe comments like this for starters.
