Why are most people here are negative and rude?

Thank you for pointing this out. I found this place as an alternative to Reddit, but whoa, I think the hate for anyone who doesn't join the groupthink is actually worse here than on reddit.

I've actually had posters on here follow me to other communities just to downvote and talk crap about me, even if the community/subject had nothing to with their original beef about me. And they would brag about doing it!

Never had that happen on Reddit! Of course, won't stop me from posting, and I just think it's hilarious. Weird though!

More people more drama. I rarely see rudeness in my experience

I feel like casual rudeness and insults have become more common as more people have come over from Reddit.

Are people negative and rude or not expressed passion towards anything?

Also, I think there is a good passion for tech surrounding this community. I like that.

What communities are you frequenting?

The ones I sub and post to have been nice.
