The toxic behaviour found in a lot of subreddits. Its an inevitable thing that it brews in communities or instances, but it'd be nice if Lemmy held itself above repeating the patterns of the lowest common denominedditor.

While I absolutely agree with you and would love to see a total absense of toxicity, that is a people issue, not a platform one.

Guaranteed Lemmy will be the same, and the bigger it grows the more you'll see.
