People will be toxic no matter what. I don't think making prospective new users feel unwelcome is a good idea when we'd like to see some growth.
It's kind of a game of balance to me
We should make sure toxicity remains unwelcome, but new users should be welcomed without negative expectations. Otherwise, we either make all newbies feel like they don't belong, or turn Lemmy into another Reddit, which would also alienate users since this is what they fled from.
