I've never seen a single video on Lemmy of a dude punching a woman. That shit is on the front page of reddit every day.

Each individual video seems justifiable. Usually the girl is assaulting the dude first. But you have to wonder why videos of that act is a whole fucking genre into it'self.

I'm being lazy and just reading the topmost comments, which means everyone else responding to this will have to scroll further.

When people turn a popular post into an Oscars Acceptance Speech E.g:

ETA: wow thanks for the upvotes! ETA2: omg my first gold award?? I couldn’t have made it without my mom and Jesus through whom all things are possible

Wine. Nobody has ever done this on Lemmy AFAIK.

Creative writing presented as truth

Wine. But I sometimes like those posts xD

Can we stop talking about Reddit? Let it go

Milk. Also, i'm in this picture and I don't like it

Please don’t let /c/asklemmy become like /r/askreddit, which had half of the front-page posts being the same sex related questions every month.

FINE WINE. We made a different community for that, and everyone remembered to use it. I think Lemmy users have a greater sense of shame than Redditors - people don't really like asking that bland sex stuff

I’m rather proud of how well we’ve done avoiding most of these. The threadiverse is interesting because of how different it is from the rest of the fediverse. It feels like most of mastodon left Twitter because they were tired of how toxic it was, most bookwyrm users left goodreads because it got to corporate, most pixelfed users left insta because they hate meta, loops left TikTok because of the US takeover etc. But here in the threadiverse it can sometimes feels like we spend a lot of time rehabilitating people who got kicked off Reddit for being too toxic, and I’m rather proud of us that it’s mostly a usable and pleasant experience, in particular because I attribute it to a lot of the oldheads being patient about helping people remember how to be people, rather than just another Reddit bot.
