Is Lemmy worse than Reddit/Twitter? (aussie.zone)

When I was on reddit I wasn't exposed to so many people with extreme absolutist views who will stop at nothing to maintain the echo chamber.

Very few people here are able to make concessions.

I just feel like every time I get on here I go away angrier. We won't attract new users if we're like this

Whenever I see an argument made in good faith, there’s frequently contrary responses that delve into the actual issues and discuss some of the nuance around them.

I am in agreement, I have found this to be the most refreshing part of the platform. Many more people on Lemmy as compared to reddit seem much less likely to take every single thing at face value only in my experience. I have had some extremely interesting and informative conversations here in which some very good points were brought up because people were more interested in discussing the topic instead of other users opinions of the topic.
