In the past week and a half, I’ve noticed Reddit behaviors starting to try and poison all of the places that people are taking refuge in to get away from the toxicity, myself included. They’ve started to DDoS Lemmy for a while, which is a Reddit thing to do and what they’re notorious of doing whenever they feel they don’t like something.

And now they’ve been trickling in numbers, these incredibly toxic users that behave as they would on Reddit. The reckless shitposting, derailing open civil discussions with unfunny and irrelevant jokes. The downvote brigading and banding together to get you banned. This exact thing has happened to me on Lemmy, that I had to leave because the toxicity was gradually building.

We should reject Reddit toxicity in general, tell them they don’t have a place here or anywhere. They know where they can dump their shit in, but they feel that because they’ve made mountains of it, that they’ve got to come over to other places and do it all over again.

I left Reddit because the toxicity levels have gotten unbearable. I really am yearning for a place where I can talk in and not be antagonized. I’m sure others are too.

    here we go with you making up your own scenarios so you can justify yourself within them. neat trick.

    Stalking is already a defined word.

    1. pursue or approach stealthily.
    2. harass or persecute (someone) with unwanted and obsessive attention.

    Pointing out similarities between two accounts is neither harassment nor persecution, and you only find it “unwanted” because its inconvenient for your case and shows how childish you are. You posted hoping for an attaboy and didn’t get one, so you waited and rewrote your gripes with a new user account and a new spin, hoping for some attention. Its super clear to everyone else.

    Asking for accountability isn’t unique to politicians and their constituents, especially when the subject matter of your post is that you want this to be a better place. while you drag it down further.

      One of which was committed. They directly linked an entirely different post and asked if it was me. That’s entirely stalking. I know you’re trying so hard to be righteous in everything but, learn to be wrong for once. It’s embarrassing how desperate you are to paint me as the villain and to make yourself look virtuous. God, I can feel the entitlement levels from here.

      But I’m done with you, because you’re clearly unreasonable. Blocked.
