@MischievousTomato It’s a tradeoff. On a more heavily moderated site, you accept that you have to moderate your behavior somewhat, with the benefit being that you are extremely unlikely to end up interacting with the types of people that don’t.
The problem with being on the internet is that the more you’re on it, the more likely it is that you have limited IRL social circles, and the same is true for the other people on the sites you end up being on.
And while people with limited IRL social circles can still be perfectly good people, there are some people that have limited IRL circles because they’re just shitty people, and these people tend to gravitate towards moderator positions because it’s a degree of control over their circumstances that they will never achieve IRL.
This, by the way, is a big part of why Digg died, and why reddit has the shitty reputation it does now. Can it still be an enjoyable website? Absolutely, yes. Just realize that there are tons of teenagers on it, many of the big subreddits have troons moderating it, and thus you’re far less likely to get banned for commenting in some fucked up porn subreddit than you are for commenting in a gender critical one.
