lol, this morning it's under DDOS attack, and it's a startup site, going through phases of getting the codebase right. you're a complaining weirdo. stay, go, no sweat off our back.

Yes, I think a different service would suit you better, I do recommend you find something more to your taste.

Okay, first thing: Lemmy is Federated. This means you don't need new logins. See a community on a different server? So long as the server it is on hasn't been defederated you can read, vote, post and comment just fine on it. For example, I'm not on this server.

The only time you would need more than one login is if you wanted separate accounts. Whether they are on different servers or not doesn't matter so long as they are all on the same Federation/web of connected servers.

Second, complaining about Social Media issues on a SM platform is pointless. The people that aren't problems won't care, and the people that are will just feed on it and use it against you. Don't like the thundering shithole that is all Social Media anymore? By all means, leave. I absolutely understand and agree with the sentiment. Maintain your mental health for your good and those you interact with IRL.

I didn't know that Lemmy was an airport.

People are going to be people wherever you go, there's sadly no getting away from the negative side of that. It's not a Reddit problem, it's not a Lemmy problem, it's a humans problem.

That said, there's plenty of good people engaging in friendly discussion too (again this also applies to Reddit). If you're constantly seeing content that makes you mad, perhaps it's time to rethink your subscriptions. If you're frustrated at people being people, well, we all feel that way sometimes but you can't change human nature so best just to have a nice cup of tea and calm down for a bit.

You're obviously pretty emotional right now from the tone of this post, and that's fine we've all been there and ranted on the internet. But a bit of perspective away from the screen would probably help.

And of course, leaving Lemmy is a totally understandable action. Just like leaving Reddit or any other website. That's all these are, at the end of the day, they're just websites where we pass the time. Use them lots, use them sparingly, or don't use them at all, but either way there's much more important things to worry about in life.
