I don't like FFXIV's community

[ReynTime]

I've found that r/ffxivdiscussion is where you want to be if you want in-depth critique topics.

Only if it's what that sub cares about. Mostly meta meta meta raid raid raid prog raid meta and they still resort to downvote abuse if you criticise aspects of the game they like.

They're just like any sub reddit with more than 1000 members really. Reddit is only good for "discussing" if you want an echo chamber to validate your own opinions. The downvote was designed to be used at comments that don't contribute with the discussion and that has not been it's practical use in many many years.

The reason a few posters here get all bothered by "muh toxic negativity" is because they have zero tolerance for people who don't see eye to eye with them in a subject they care about.
