I just want to say one of the reasons I quite like my experience on lemmy (at least the instances I most frequent communities on) is this right here. A lot of the time when I see disagreement between users in my frequented communities they:

• actually provide details and context for their points, including directing their response to specific points made.
• are willing to disagree without it being a problem or it devolving into personal attacks.

I’m not saying I don’t see these things, its just not the primary thing I see as compared to other sites.

Thank y’all for having a very insightful and positive conversation.
