I think Lemmy is just more open than reddit rather than more left or more right. People are actually discussing different viewpoints with the intentions to find compromises that work, and haven’t yet fallen into the trap of becoming entrenched and just fighting over which team is right… mostly, seeing some tribalism on here but you can’t have a group of humans communicating without it showing up.

I can assure you they’re not engaging and merely down voting things they don’t like.

Engagement is a two way street, you need to post something worth engaging with.
Occasionally I’ve seen a valid opinion/idea with some downvotes but there’s still usually responses that get a discussion going. Only the true shit has the massive one sided downvote ratio.
