This is an opportunity for any users, server admins, or interested third parties to ask anything they’d like to @[email protected] and I about Lemmy. This includes its development and future, as well as wider issues relevant to the social media landscape today.
Note: This will be the thread tmrw, so you can use this thread to ask and vote on questions beforehand.
No such tools, and Im not sure what might help in that regard.
Lemmy and the Fediverse are fundamentally different platforms, so I doubt that it will devolve in that direction. Reddit as a for-profit company makes money from ads, so all they care about is “engagement” which increases when people get angry. Lemmy on the other hand is run by volunteers who will not tolerate that. These volunteers have the power to ban or block toxic actors and I expect that they will make use of that power (see beehaw). Its more likely that there will be multiple parts of Lemmy with different levels of toxicity which are loosely connected. Then users can choose if they rather want a harshly moderated instance like beehaw, something loosely moderated or anything in between.
