Went to visit this godforsaken place and was terrified by the amount of racist/xenophobic/nazi/misogynistic/incel/far-right posts and comments.

Was it always like that? Am I too used to being on Lemmy (or Fediverse in general)? Is it just my feed or is it like this for everybody?

Mainly just edgy teens, the more you read the hateful comments the more IG shows it to you. If you see a post with the comments, click Not Interested under it, it can help curate your feed.
