@wrigleyfield I've always found the fediverse less toxic than *any* part of Titter I've experienced. With temporary exceptions, when there's a huge influx of newbies hopped up on DataFarm algorithm nosecandy, and spoiling for a fight. But before long they always calm down. Or block me, or leave for lack of drama etc. Either way, it's a problem that appears to solve itself.
(Side note: Timed Mute is really handy for getting usually good people out of your face if they're getting snappy)
