💯 on all your points ESPECIALLY number 2 I’ve created so many non political communities but it seems like no one here has interest in anything non political. Low to no engagement or participation.
Lots of ppl say ‘niche’ I agree but can you give me like two examples ? Only asking because I’m trying to understand and maybe even create some of those on our instance hilariouschaos.com to fill that need. In hopes ppl will engage and participate. Even if they are communities I might not be interested in.the thing is I don’t know what they are though
It sucks. I hate the constant politics. Our instance, HC, has a lot of non political fun communities wish more people joined them. The only political communities we have (hopefully not leaving any out) are
Niche is like “heatpumps” or “succulents” or just any random topic that you want to learn more about.
For me, Reddit was always invaluable for getting initial information on anything I needed to check out for the first time.
Ok ty that’s what I was thinking they might be. Don’t deprive yourself information.
I still use reddit but not like I use too. I don’t socialize or ‘discuss’ anything with anyone or Debate. Don’t do it you’ll get banned eventually
Make an account bc yes reddit is just the only mostly useful tool which is also social media
Use lemmy and reddit but reddit only for getting information, answer non political non emotional inducing questions nothing offensive controversial just don’t.
Also block users that post or comment rage bait and try to rile people up or who argue people u disagree with etc because it will hide your stuff from them you also. But in a way, this helps keeps trouble makers who intentionally start shit with non hive mind thinkers purposely to get u mad so they can report u and get u banned.
Keep your opinions to yourself you should be good
