Bro nobody is frothing at the mouth, they're just shit talking, because like, that's the whole point of these kind of communities. If we wanted a slideshow to scroll through, we'd go to Tumblr or something.
Would you prefer Lemmy just be a series of low-effort memes that get upvoted but never have any conversation?
Nobody is butthurt, nobody is upset, nobody even really cares. They're just taking the (admittedly unnecessary) "default tone" of the internet which is a bit needlessly combative, but that doesn't imply anyone actually cares about this topic anymore than you do. If your meme can be "just a joke; don't take it that serious," then their comments can be the exact same tone.
Relax; everyone is just bullshitting except for the people complaining about the people who are bullshitting.
