I definitely see a lot of toxic comments on here but I think that's mainly from reddit outcasts trying their hardest to be sassy. Sassy unhelpful comments on Reddit won the most karma so it can be helpful to remind them that that doesn't actually work here
I have noticed that the rate of my own sassy short comments has reduced quite a bit here, when compared to the past. I feel that the reduced volume of content, more detailed comments by others, and more of a sense of investment by commenters has encouraged me to up my game. To decide that if I am to comment, it is worth giving the comment more consideration and depth.
Will this continue? I hope so.
