I like a lot of the communities on that instance, but every once in a while I just get hit with a random wave of toxicity by them for no reason. For example, there was a post asking which communities from Reddit do you wish existed on Lemmy, and I answered honestly saying more car related communities as they are one of my hobbies, and I got severely downvoted and got replied to with “there is a FuckCars community” There are other times in the past where something similar happened in a lemmy.ml community, where I said something that was 100% non-offensive, non-argumentative, and non-political but got mass down voted for no reason. I have not had this problem anywhere else however. Does anyone else have a similar experience or no?

    I mean yeah, fuck cars, buuuuut, the infrastructure isn’t gonna change overnight so we still need them. And while we wait for that to happen, might as well tinker with them, because it’s fun.

    c/mechanicadvice has been fun so far. Let me go find the link, 1 sec.

      I don’t ever see cars disappearing until we figure out some sci-fi level of transportation. ICE is clearly going to fade out of existence in the next 20-30 years, but there’ll still be cars on the road - just hydrogen/battery powered.
