Why is lemon8 getting toxic now?

Like I don’t get. People used to have fun on here and now I just want to delete it because people are so rude to others when they just wanna be themselves. People are shaming others for being confident with themselves, people forcing their religion on people etc. like I use this app to find ways to better myself and now i can’t do that anymore because people are so hateful to people who wanna succeed in life. It’s mostly adults on here too. Either being really creepy or just plan out rude and yall STILL don’t know the reason why Gen Z is so rude to adults. Look where we got it from 😂. But yeah I get everyone is entitled to their own opinions but yall are just being rude just to be rude.

... Read moreLemon8, a platform celebrated for its vibrant community, seems to be changing for the worse. Many users have voiced concerns about a rise in negativity and hostility, particularly towards those expressing confidence and individuality. This shift raises questions about community standards and user behavior, especially among adults who have been noted for their critical attitudes. Experts suggest that online culture, much influenced by generational differences, can shape how users interact. The trend of criticism and rudeness may stem from a broader societal context where judgment and intolerance seem more prevalent, especially online. In discussions around mental well-being, it’s important for platforms like Lemon8 to prioritize positivity and inclusivity to maintain engagement and user satisfaction. By focusing on supportive interactions, Lemon8 can reclaim its status as a place for genuine community engagement and self-improvement.

I found this on Lemon8 and it disgusted me. So let's talk about it...
Some people don't know that protecting you peace isn't self centered or narcissistic. I do not blame them for that. Mental health is so important. I cannot stress this enough. Protecting your peace is like protecting your soul, or body. Now I am not saying it's okay to be selfish. Not c

Personally my biggest ick with lemon8 is that there’s a lot of “influencers” and ugc promoters coming from Insta and TikTok complaining that they aren’t getting enough followers or engagement when their posts are either trying to get people to spend money or compliment fishing. This isn’t an app

Why is Lemon8 such a toxic community?
💖 I’m sorry but I can’t be the only one who thinks so! Don’t get me wrong, I love Lemon8 and find it more useful than Pinterest imo. But the constant arguing and fighting that goes on in the comment sections are upsetting. If you see something that you don’t like, scroll past it. Pretty simple.

Some of the comments I receive. Isn’t lemon8 a place where we can express ourselves, show different makeup styles, and be honest? I get attacked for occasionally wearing blue contacts and makeup. So what? Can’t we all dress up some time? I get attacked because I’ve had a nose job and some lip fille
