Here I’m going to criticize the right real quick.
The right is so boring. Jeeze. Always hysterical. They don’t like information that is rooted fact. So culturally hitlerist.
Reality has a liberal bias that conservatives only overcome by rigging the system.

That bot speaks a lot about the quality of the typical r/conservative thread
I hate it that all these people call it “left wing” because there’s censorship.
This censorship is actually right-wing censorship to protect their website from trouble from the left-wing. It’s as simple as that.
Companies like Reddit and other social media don’t care about the content. They only care about money and a reasonable good image.
If you fail to locate the downvote button, don’t complain.
All the actual left wing Redditors came here. The only thing left are the conservatives who don’t hide being conservatives, and the nazis pretending to be leftists to troll.
“All” is stretching it, but I think TikTok and the fediverse have definitely attracted significant portions of the progressive left.
What remains on reddit is mostly the liberal left and a few progressives in niche subs.
But if you go to a sub such as r/worldnews, it’s clear that there are no actual progressives commenting on that sub. They either got banned or they left.
All the actual left wing Redditors came here.
Lemmy has 0.005% (no, this is not a typo) of the active users. For every million Reddit users, there are 50 Lemmy users. To try and put this in perspective, if reddit was the entirely of the United States, Lemmy would be a town of ~17,000 people. Or about 1/10th of a square mile of Manhattan during the day.
Let’s not make up wild, inflated, statements like this . We aren’t even large enough to make up a single medium sized reddit community. Nevermind actually affect change on Reddit by way of user migration.
Wow, and it is everything I ever wanted it to be already. It is almost like having millions of users isn’t the good thing everyone wants it to be.
I wasn’t stating that it was.
Just stating the facts. In threads where delusioned Lemmy users act like they are having a big impact on Reddit.
We should focus on our community, how to grow it organically, how do we avoid bot hell? How do we foster something better? Instead of inflating egos and trying to stick it back at reddit, when we are but a blip.
That’s not true at all. I know a lot of lefties who still use reddit because their niche communities do not exist in any real capacity on lemmy
Can confirm. They’re the only communities I still engage with back there (namely cremposting and wetlanderhumor)
Its gotta happen, right? Where the astroturfers are wasting time on friendly fire. Like two catfish meeting online?
