Awful in what way? I haven't been there for ages because it moves too quickly, you can't really keep up at all.

ayrt

It's just waaay too much for me, like a thousand people yelling at once. Too fast, too many completely different topics, too much looking for something to be outraged about, too much actual bigotry. Just a complete mess. Our wank might be painfully pointless 99.999% of the time, but at least it isn't... that.

DA It can be overwhelming I just pick through the threads there sometimes there are things I'm interested in. Other times I am scrolling a lot.

I find ffa to be way more low-key than here, honestly. It's big and loud, but it's not personal, and if one conversation gets to be too much I can go check into five other potentially interesting ones instead. The speed it moves means no argument sticks around for long unless someone's really determinedly grudgewanking it, and people push back on that pretty hard. And on ffa if someone's being Wrong on the Internet, I can be confident several other people will push back, whereas here I do not have that confidence.

NA I go to FFA, too, and I'd take the wank over there to the wank here any day--it seems a lot less personal than it does here, partially because things move so fast. I also find it much easier to avoid things I'm not interested in and find things that I do want to talk about over there than over here.

na

I think FFA does less of "I don't like what you said, so I am going to pick apart your sentence construction for 20 comments." But maybe it just gets drowned out because there's so much activity going on there.
