I’m looking for any examples that you might have encountered and links to them.
People seemed to appreciate the conversation in this thread about balancing privacy with the realities of wedding business marketing: https://lemmy.ml/post/7435311
You can peruse my history. I ask a lot of clarifying questions to understand what people mean before I criticize their position.
Do you ever get burned out on people not starting out in good faith? Like I used to enjoy back and forth, but a while ago I gave up because the majority are super defensive instead of inquisitive.
That’s exactly why I ask clarifying questions.
Bad faith arguers usually won’t answer a question because then they’d have to reveal they’re arguing in bad faith. But that ends up being the tell anyway.
There was a recent instance where I asked someone if they really supported free speech, which they arguing for in response to a Canadian policy that would criminalize calling for genocide. Really supporting free speech meant permitting calls for genocide against a group that included them.
They never answeres the question about whether they supported calls for genocide that might include them. I asked them twice.
In that case, it’s easy enough to just stop responding to anything they say. They’ve outed themselves by not participating in the conversation.
Anything you are particularly proud of?
Uhhh not really
I had this one the other day, and it was even political

These are just some random threads I saved. As others have pointed out, niche communities are (usually) the least toxic. Applies to any site or chatroom.
This one’s full of examples https://lemmy.world/c/bestoflemmy
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !bestoflemmy@lemmy.world
