      they will come tolemmy, when everyone gets banned, or shadowbanned. currently i am shadowbanned from my only account after several were perma ban, because the reddit AI decided to ban any account associated with a previous account infraction. before that they paid no attention to a single permaban from sub before.

    Honestly, I say anyone who listens to any kind of broadcast-anything at this point is an unfortunate part of the system.

    Even your typical “left leaning” news conglomerates have failed to report and make people as outraged as they should be. Nobody understands the depth of the situation we’re in, except - it seems - academics, and people who are paying attention to multiple non-US sources.

    I’ve never used twitter or facebook or tiktok and left reddit and 4chan. I don’t want to be part of the problem.

    I want to be the ENTIRE problem.

      twitter was used mostly for porn, anyways, especially when tumbler removed all of its porn content. almost the deleted content gets reposted on porn sites eventually.

    I’m on both rn because reddit’s userbase is still bigger atm and not every sub I subbed to on reddit has an equivalent here

      They’ve been X tier for a while now. A lot of people have been (shadow)banned just for having opinions that don’t fit reddits narrative. Also better not disagree with any mods since that’s basically an instaban.

      It’s sad since I was on reddit since the beginning. First Imgur turned completely to shit and now Reddit has become a dystopian hellhole. I just couldn’t deal with all the shitty practises and enshittification it went through. Also all the subs I liked were filled with bots and reposts ad nauseum.

      Honestly I like lemmy way better BECAUSE it has less shitty people on it. Way more meaningful discussion and less shitty one liner “LOL LOOK AT ME IM FUNNY” dumbass comments.

        At least spez hasn’t been caught doing the Hitler salute in public (but the bar should have never been that low)

        Lemmy today feels Like what Reddit felt like at it’s best. There’s some assholes sure, but the normal amount you’d expect given GIFT not the turbo accelerated corpo nonsense

      I’ve only been here a couple days, but from what I’ve seen so far, lemmy is significantly more left wing than reddit at large (which is really saying something), and I’ve seen basically zero pushback on that.

      Obviously we don’t want to encourage extremist right wingers to come in and trash the place, but it also wouldn’t hurt to have some more mainstream appeal.

        if you notice this, then reddit has been banning “left leaning accounts for a while” there are right wingers, but they are concentrated, segregated into thier own instances, much like r/conservative has thier owns safe space, they have it here, i block those communities.

        Try to start curating your block list. Whenever you see a post or a community that rubs you the wrong way/you aren’t interested in block it. Try to identify key words that help you blacklist the stuff you dont want to see.

        The overwhelming Lemmy biases and echo chamber ideologies can be a little grating for sure. The longer your here the better curated your feed and the more you will find/contribute to nonpolitical communities which drastically improve the experience.
