A lion's share of the people @kissane surveyed responded that they left #Mastodon because they got yelled at, scolded and lectured when they were here. One major source for this appears to be unrealistic expectations for the use of content warnings.
I have been lectured for CWs & for posts that contradicts an "accepted" narrative. I feel surprisingly horrid after each lecture πŸ˜…
I like its decentralised nature, but it can get toxic here.

@liztai @kissane Ironic that people try to shut you down for not adhering to the "accepted" narrative. I hate that society seems to be shifting from listening to everyone and benefiting from each nugget of goodness to shouting down anything that doesn't match what one wants to hear.

Free discussion allows us to escape the echo chamber chamber chamber of vacuous brains.

@scott @kissane yea it is a disturbing trend I am seeing both in the left and right of the spectrum, mostly on the US side.

@scott @kissane that's why people like you are a breath of fresh air. I don't feel like I have to walk on eggshells! πŸ˜‚
