    Everyone is so nice and civil on lemmy and mastodon. In contrast to some truly toxic behavior on reddit and twitter.

    I’m sure it’s around, but in my small sample space, it has a smaller blast radius.

      I honestly think that has to do with the fact that everyone on the fediverse has the ability to immediately block bad actors and never see them again. If there’s enough brigading happening, that server can be defederated. Those same toxic people exist here, they’re just shunted to their own inaccessible islands.
