I’ve had 2-3 experiences like that on Lemmy and kbin, but far more on reddit. On Lemmy it tends to be “intelligent but deranged person who hates you” while reddit tends to be “insane or unintelligent person who hates you”.
If someone starts out aggressive or insulting but is willing to have a real conversation, great. Some people are relentlessly angry or condescending and at that point, fuck 'em. I don’t need that in my life.
I debated it for quite a while because they were legitimately trying to have conversations, but they were tankies and rather aggressive. Finally just pulled the trigger and I’m happy I did.

Yes, this exactly. I’ve had to block 2 of them and everything’s been smooth sailing since.

Sorry you’ve had that experience. My experience is lemmy is less full of hate and BS than reddit, at least.
