r/politics problem isn’t that it’s infested with maga nonsense….idk what you’re even talking about.

R/politics problem is that it’s a doomer cesspool that doesn’t actually like talking about politics, but likes to complain and talk about Trump all the time.

I’m a borderline socialist, so pretty left leaning, and that subreddit is way too toxic for me. I’m not interested in that type of discourse.

It’s 100% going to be.

Lemmy isn’t “special”. I’ve already seen hot takes and other things to get people riled up on Lemmy.

100%. A great emotional experience.

I literally saw a guy earlier today in that one large memes thread trying to convince people that Eastern European countries yearn for the USSR days.

Only tankies try to do that lol.

Lol half the comments are “idk what you’re talking about”. A good chunk are proving OP right, and the rest is America hate.

Exactly like on Reddit. Literally isn’t any different here.

Lemmy got rid of the auto refresh you’re referring to. No more live updates.

Can we get some more information about what the problem and solution was? Or a link to your other thread?

How is Microsoft and Target rebrands when it literally still says Microsoft and Target?

Echoing what everyone else is saying, enjoyable read.

The topless nazi pasties though was a complete wtf just thrown in there……like what?

You’re so right lol. Most of these memes are completely brain dead.

It’s the dominant economic idea in the entire western world.

Even the Social democracies like Sweden are just a degree of neo liberalism. You won’t find most people saying they want communism.

If anything hardcore leftists are out of touch, including the OP.

You can downvote me all you want, but it’s no secret that this instance was essentially a communist refuge lol.

You trying to guilt people into generating content? Lol.

This isn’t a job. This is for leisure. No one should force it.

None of this is what I was looking for.

Meta is plugging in USBs or connecting to people’s accounts en masse to get into people’s encrypted backups? I think not.

People keep claiming Meta does this, does that when it comes to microphones. Where is the proof? I haven’t seen a SINGLE piece of evidence to show that Meta is listening to you at all times when you aren’t using the app. I only ever see people’s anecdotes of “it heard me talk about something cause it popped up later”.

Show me evidence that Apple has a backdoor for companies like Meta, that circumvent their normal iOS functionality.

I disagree. What made Reddit for me is that there were so many people on it, than any niche hobby had it’s own space.

Sure the main big subreddits were shit shows, but the hobby subreddits were great! Something that still isn’t a thing for Lemmy. Specialization.

I still find myself checking Reddit out for subreddits on specific niche games for example.

Like there is literally a subreddit for almost anything. Robot vacuums. Sins of a Solar Empire. Crusader kings. Fish tanks. MotoGP.

Things that probably will take a while to get running on Lemmy.

Right now Lemmy is too “general” for me to really have a feed of things I actually care about.

Tbh I never looked before all this went down (cause why would I lol), so maybe there were changes and it wasn’t a “all airbnbs are banned” sort of thing. Maybe it removed a lot of listings.

How did they end up banning AirBnBs? I was just browsing Montreal AirBnBs yesterday ( funny enough).

No, I don’t care at all. If I want to speak to Romanians, I go on r/Romania, r/RoCasual, etc. etc.

We are only 20 million people. Americans are 330 million, and its an English speaking site. I don’t expect to see Romanians catered to in any way what so ever in the generic subs.

You guys are nuts if you let it bother you.

Literally makes no sense.

Leftists aren’t tankies. Tankies are specifically pro USSR.

A pro authoritarian state. That’s why they are called tankies after all lol.
