lemmy's preeeeetty toxic. But admittedly, I've never used twitter.
checking your instance
OK, true
Lemmy is actually pretty good if you block .ml, it becomes pretty pleasant actually. There is one problem, a lot of the time you see a thread, press on it to check what's happening, and it doesn't let you because some .ml person started this flame war, and it's pretty annoying at times.
You can always open links in a private window or different browser
On mobile, in the app, it is a hustle. Rarely some comment from .ml is worth it.
But wait, the top level comment here is from a .ml account. How do you see this? Or are only posts from .ml blocked?
It's not blocked on this account. I use it if I want to punish myself by reading bad takes on the internet
If you really wanted to punish yourself, you had an account confederated with lemmygrad and hexbear
There is a big difference between BDSM and a suicide attempt
