It feels like people are a lot nicer here than on Twitter and Reddit, and even when people disagree, it's generally civil and not an all-out flame war. Also, there's no algorithm promoting outrage all the time.
For me, the anticipation of toxicity was a huge deterrent for me ever participating in real discussions, but here I feel like I can be myself.
I think it's healthier this way.

I find the quality of content to be way higher. People aren't desperately trying to stand out or fit in with a crowd.
You're right about the mods, though. All it takes is a large number of reports and they will usually come up with a reason to reprimand you, even if you aren't breaking any rules.
This, of course, has been and will continue to be abused to drown out people with dissenting opinions.

That's not true.
