Lack of rage bait (kbin.social)

Something here felt different, and I think I realized what.

Content here, at least from my experience so far, is not rage baity. When I go to Reddit it does not take long time until I get to some post that I go into and read because it makes me angry, or people in comments make me angry (and I have a need to engage to bark at the moon).

Here most of content I read because legit interest. Hope it stays this way.

You're absolutely right, everything's so civil here that the moment someone is remotely hostile to anyone it stands out like a sore thumb. Reddit was hell in some places in this regard, one word against the general consensus and everyone piles on you like you're a terrorist.

And that's without mentioning people who are there clearly just to stir up arguments, I don't know how so many people don't realize this. The "old" saying "don't feed the troll" has been forgotten by a big portion of the internauts.

Yep hostile is the perfect way to describe Reddit.

The "old" saying "don't feed the troll" has been forgotten by a big portion of the internauts.

I'm not sure they ever knew it in the first place!

But never mind now, we're here and we can finally relax.
