If you think Lemmy is bad, then you were never on Reddit. Spez went full MAGA, and after the MAGA Inauguration, he permabanned all the active users who built the site. Now it’s all MAGA trolls, novelty accounts, bots, Russian propaganda farmers, etc.

Because its got too much political bias and censorship which alienates one side and the centre. Elon did this by making twitter open all other platforms must be just as tolerant or cease to be relevant in the medium of the marketplace of ideas

because spez thirsts for musk, when musk complained about whitepeople twitter, he started a purge, and then when he complained again spez just decided to continually purge people that are negative to right wing, plus a side benefit of getting rid of the lowest hanging fruit of bots/spamming.

he made it less OPEN, only allow right wing/nazism/zionism/transphobia to thrive, also astroturfing the “left”

U can go test this and find that it’s unequivocally false. Your just scared that those things are winning in the marketplace of ideas

Meh. Reddit had a very strong political bias.
Lemmy doesn’t have the same polish, it’s a little more difficult to create an account, and doesn’t have any marketing. Also success snowballs.
I respect the crap out of everyone that pitches in to make Lemmy as good as it is. But if I’m being real, I’m here to spite Reddit. Few people have that moral give-a-fuck. Spite is easy, following through to do something that is more challenging and pays nothing is not.
