Hi Phuks, how's everyone doing? I'm curious about so called "free speech" platforms, and why some thrive and others fail. Why are some toxic and others are wholesome? I'm not sure about Phuks' stance on free speech, but Lemmy and Raddle are pretty safe. If Phuks does support free speech to the whole extent, how come it seems less toxic than other alternatives?

This ridiculous over-sensitivity is entirely consistent with you having spent time on Raddle. Many users on here have a historical exposure to Voat.

Perhaps you should focus more on whether a person's message is meaningful/worthwhile, rather than nit-picking words that someone has trained you to be offended by?

I'm familiar with Voat, and me personally, I can't be around toxic language. I cringe inside if I see it or hear it.

Raddle is toxic in far more important ways. Your problem with toxic language is just your personal problem, easily resolved by changing your mindset and your priorities.

Most people are pretty polite here (you can perhaps exclude me), but they don't share your debilitating mental habits.
