    Yeah, I think it’s just a matter of scale on the internet. Early on for unity (and right now, for Godot), it feels like a small community of people working around issues together toward a common goal. If Godot ever reaches the scale and prevalence of unity, I expect the communities to deteriorate into impersonal toxicity just the same. I saw it in reddit subs, and see it in Lemmy communities. I don’t know how to combat it besides jumping ship and starting fresh once it gets unwieldy.

      @teawrecks @ArmoredThirteen blender is pretty big and I would say it’s community is still pretty good , especially as someone who has been using it since like 2003… that said maybe blender was just lucky or has yet to start to decay ?

        Well that’s reassuring that it’s possible. I wonder how much effort is put into moderation, or if there are any community guidelines that make a difference.
