I've also noticed it become slightly more combative and strawman-y with the influx of new folx, but maybe getting better again lately?

I'd like to think it's because the mods here are a lot less likely to aid and abet that shit. I don't know if it is, but that's what I'd like to think.

Yeah mods and admins around here put in some real good work protecting their users.

have you looked at comments on an instagram post? you'd absolutely never be allowed to to say half what gets said there here

What I like about fedi is that while we usually give people the benefit of the doubt, we don't tolerate dog whistles, sealioning, or other ""subtle"" methods of spreading bigotry and intolerance.

Whereas the big commercial platforms we on't do a thing unless it's blatant harassment, or matches one of the 12 slurs on their no-no list.

and if your admin allows that shit you can go find a new admin. no one's the only game in town out here

I think it's the same phenomenon in multi-player gaming - community hosted servers tend to have less garbage flying around compared to centrally hosted company servers.

If you run your own server, you're far more likely to care about the user experience. And if you run your own server, you make your own rules and can manage how you'd like - no obligations.
