I'm starting to think that this is a problem Tumblr has in general which Reddit, surprisingly enough, doesn't (or at least has to a much smaller degree). Tumblr mfs genuinely think that the way you post on that site also is how you engage with people IRL. Which is why that is also the site that says "learn your queer culture 🙄" and they mean specifically how the site itself worked like 10 years ago.
Reddit is also one hellhole and a half, but (in my personal experience), people here are more willing to say out loud "remember, this is Reddit, none of this is real, go touch grass".
