since we’re allegedly allowed to talk about this here, what was your stance on the 2024 election (if you’re american)? I’m gonna be honest, I still don’t understand how people came to the conclusion that Trump would have been better for helping Gazans.
I’ll be honest. I saw Trump winning coming. Because a lot of people I know were repeating lies they heard from internet content. I could t put up a fight because it was just so dumb. People lost jobs. People were financially stressed. It just was a lot to fight. So much of social media has been weaponized. I was banned from Facebook before the election because I was having it out with Bot accounts calling for civil wars and violence. So Facebook does nothing about the terrorism content but blocked me for calling them out. It’s been a godsend not being on Facebook anymore.
New Reddit feels artificial. The written content posts LOOK like they’re from AI. Much of the subreddits are now curated. You can’t say Luigi.
Here, it’s a bit of a wild west. And that’s okay.
There isn’t much written content posts. But the comments? I’m loving it. It comes off genuine. Human. Real. Even the shitty ones that make me want to downvote but damn do I somewhat see their perspective.
I wouldn’t say Lemmy is much better though… It’s just Reddit but not on Reddit.
Lemmy users are not better… but Lemmy is.

I haven’t been banned for voicing disdain about Israel here. Just a few deleted comments. But no bans.

Lemmy feels a lot more like old reddit.
