Comment on Lemmy is a tech literate echo chamber

On the topic of echo chambers - At what point did we decide that a bunch of people over a wide geographical area with similar interests and a common code of standards/preferences of civility… Is a bad thing?
It’s kind of how social clubs exist irl.

See I don’t think the “tribe” is the trouble when one is given the option and space to choose or abandon their tribes freely with no cost. If this particular culture isn’t your jam there’s plenty of others that do similar that might be to your taste.
Applying the trauma of racism, religious persecution and so on to a digital place that is one of many… Doesn’t feel genuine. Like it’s trying to apply some axiomatic principle to the lowest of low stakes social clubs.

I didn’t say it was bad I just said it existed. I wanted to take a jab at all the people I see here who are adamantly against a tailored social media experience by saying that fact that you’re here means you’re already in an echo chamber.
