Highly political topics and such are the worst, probably. But others where people come because of a shared interest, like a sport or food or animal or something, a hobby, I think tend to be more chill and mellow.

You would think. I still won't go back to the gardening community. And will probably just stop participating in anything around here.

The problem is that there is still to few others than those types. The topic seems secondary. The mellow places are where it's empty.

Maybe it also depends on the topic. But there are always gonna be annoying people everywhere you go in life. 🥲

The topic was how much they hoped my garden withered because I couldn't afford to fully mulch all of it and was saying I was having to constantly weed the edge of my garden.
They proceeded to gleefully wish harm upon me and hardship for not doing or being exactly like them and as I begged for help from others to not feel alone was told I likely deserved it.

Yeah people are truly awful everywhere and not working on getting better.
