    I’ve had positive experiences, mostly in the shit-posting and meme communities.

    Maybe it’s just me, but the negative experiences are way more memorable than the positive ones.

      Yeah, I definitely feel that way. Positive experiences just feel ambient, and negative experiences feel like distinct events.

      Still, I have the sense that Lemmy is mostly positive, even though there are jerks. I have alot of comments with, like… 7 upvotes and 1 downvote, and of course the downvote sticks out in my mind… But then again, way more people were supportive than negative, and that’s kinda cool.
