  • I’m sorry. I need to vent

    In the past 3 days I’ve been downvoted for commenting that gay people can adopt babies (in 196 for that matter) and asking why a news article about a bridge seemed to have one photo with a concrete floor and one with a wood floor. I commented asking why I was getting downvoted and someone told me it’s because I said it’s two different bridges (which I most certainly didn’t say) and someone else was sarcastic and rude

    People on Lemmy are proving to get more toxic as time goes on. I’m considering going back to reddit more and more. Sure, the place is horrible, but I don’t feel bad about myself when I feel brave enough to comment

    Edit: Can somebody who’s downvoting me please tell me what I said that was wrong? I really just want to know




  • Edit 3: I know nobody here is going to miss me, but I’m going to block this community and I feel it’s fair for me to get to explain why. I’ve frequented this community since I came from reddit and the comments always come across as “us vs them” to the point of hostility toward each other. It’s really not kind or welcoming. I hope you all have a nice day and find that feeling of welcomeness that I was looking for

    Edit 2: Are people just angry? I ask a genuine question and get two snide remarks as answers. Lemmy is proving to be NO better than reddit

    Is it just me or does the bridge on the left look like it has concrete flooring? If so, why didn’t they just get two pictures of the actual affected bridge?

    Edit: please don’t just downvote me. I’m asking a question because I don’t know the answer
