I want to clarify that @srfc is perfectly entitled to express his frustration in response to mine. I don’t want to censor that in any way, nor am I the judge here. It’s all fine by me—just a ping-pong of opinions.

I know I was responding directly to your post, but I didn't mean that remark personally, it was aimed at the general internet negative culture

Regarding the internet’s negative culture, I think it’s largely due to accessibility and anonymity. And aside from intentional harm, I think it’s simply in our nature to share negative emotions more readily. When someone is happy and content, there’s no conflict and no drama. The sun is shining, the weather is nice—I think I’ll go swim in the lake and chill out. But negative emotions are more irritating and urgent. You feel the need to do something with them. That’s why negativity is so prevalent.

This is also evident when you look at clickbaity and misleading article titles—negativity generates more views and attention.
 
I don't agree that there is such a thing as a negative internet culture in general. Because the opposite is just as true.
Fan groups where everything the creator does is a stroke of genius, no matter how stupid and superfluous it was.
It is particularly bad on TikTok in the respective bubbles.
I think it should not matter whether someone has posted something negative or positive. Just the content, we can then agree or disagree.
