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 😅
I like its decentralised nature, but it can get toxic here.

@liztai
In this time of decline personal toxicity is a character trait.
I just don't know if it is biologically wired or a narrative.
@DavidPetraitis oh I am pretty sure it's biological. I read that social media capitalises on our wiring to get us hooked on it.
@liztai I was being careful, since I don't know you. I agree. Psy-war is real and happening.
