Obviously, the internet has always been a toxic place, (the phrase “flame war” has been around for decades,) but it seems to have gotten so much worse over the last few years. I used to think decentralization of the internet would fix the worst of it, but Lemmy seems to have gotten worse alongside the rest of internet culture, proving me wrong. How do we fix/improve this culture of toxicity?


Piefed.social is defederated with Hexbear and lemmygrad, so you aren’t exposed to their content or users. Your instance is federated with .ml though.
Ah whoops, I think I remember that now. Thank you.
