I’ve been on lemmy for over a year now, and I just realized I used to read all those HackerNews articles + their comments, I haven’t done that in probably 6 months because the discussion here has gotten much better. What’s changed for you with Lemmy over the last year?

They also deter good comments that go against the grain for an instance. Labeling comments as "toxic" even if they are fine but controversial isn't good. Such toxic comments can be reported and removed anyways.

I mean they deter comments from the people leaving the downvotes. Anyone wanting not to be deterred by downvotes can adjust settings to not see them.
