I disagree. I feel that on Reddit, the type of users and discussions were mostly toxic and based on popularity. Lemmy is far from perfect, and there are aspects about it that I feel certainly are lacking, but to suggest that it’s a bigger echo chamber than reddit, I find hard to believe. But, if you can provide me with some examples that highlight your point of view, I would be interested.

Density of toxic rhetoric is through the roof on lemmy. It rivals what you’d find on bad private forums of yore.

toxic

This you?

If it ain’t Tomino it ain’t Gundam.

If it ain’t Lucas it ain’t Star Wars.

If it ain’t Roddenberry it ain’t Trek.

Importantly if you think Kurtzman is making Trek then you misunderstand the series. Star Trek is about a future where humanity lifts itself fully out of its worst aspects. It shows us what we should aspire to be. Kurtzman just wants to make Starship Troppers without the satire.

Nice toxic gatekeeping rhetoric there.

This you? 🙂
