Anyone else try to show Lemmy to their friends only for the toxic side of Lemmy to scare them off?

My friend's on reddit a lot, uses it for support questions and reviews mostly, but got fed up with all the bullshit toxicity.

I suggested she check out Lemmy, there's less content, but generally fewer toxic interactions, and we scrolled a bit.

She checked it out, didn't understand a meme on WomensStuff, had me ask them about it, and was so put off by their responses that that was the end of lemmy for her.
