Where? No one ever gives examples of all the toxic subs they claim exist.
I’m in r/witcher and even that sub has clamped down on misogyny and general assholery. The general assholery was always there but then the Netflix show came out and it was awful and it has a woman showrunner so the sub started to go toxic but moderators managed to stop that shit and deploy some good bots. The sub does often get hijacked with show hateboner posts but they gets loads of engagement and there isn’t really anything else going on in the canon so it isn’t surprising.
Most of my fandoms were an absolute shit show on Twitter but haven’t been on Reddit since the overhaul several years ago. And of course for the last several years dangerously toxic fandom shit has been running rampant on Twitter. Death threats to anyone and everyone involved in something that includes something fans don’t agree with, doxxing, swatting, the whole works. Doxxing may happen on some subs (I haven’t seen any but it’s possible) but death threats and swatting don’t. They can’t. You can’t actually do that shit on Reddit.
