    I went back this week because I noticed narwhal 2 finally came out. I loved narwhal and we waited such a long time for the new app to come out. Outside of using Reddit in search engine results, I looked around with the new app. And people are so mean and rude on Reddit I forgot how toxic it can get there. Made me really appreciate lemmy.

    Narwhal 2 will eventually need to start charging. It was nice to finally get a glimpse of it because it goes paid.

      I’ve been sort of bothered by the uptick of rudeness and combativeness on lemmy lately. When I first got here, it felt like everyone assumed positive intent from each other most of the time, but recently it feels like that shifted. I hope I just got unlucky and it isn’t a bigger trend overall.

        It’s a damn shame if that toxicity is permeating through Lemmy. Once I really feel no difference between here and reddit on that front, I’d rather go back to reddit unfortunately.

          I’m afraid we’re all like Frodo after destroying the ring—you can’t go home because it won’t be the same anymore. At least Lemmy doesn’t shove ads down my throat like I’m a baby bird.
