For example, I don’t use TikTok. I never have, and I never will, and I’d advise everyone else to get off the platform too. I genuinely believe it’s objectively harmful to people’s mental health and possibly even a threat to democracy. That said, I also believe people should be free to decide for themselves whether they want to use it or not, which is why I’m against the U.S. government banning it.
Honestly tho it’s been downhill over there. I’m getting old reddit vibes here and I’m cool with never posting on reddit ever again.
Reddit is still better for communities based around hobbies (at the moment at least) just due to it’s shear size.
Garbage is more entertaining than the same 5 political posts reposted between 40 instances and the only OC being posts that bitch about Reddit. This place is NOTHING like old reddit.
Sorry but not sorry, this place is borderline worthless. Until sometime figures it how to keep every sub becoming a commission echo chamber this is an interesting experiment that is dead in the water.
Then why are you here bitching about it?
Oh I’m sorry, I didn’t realize stating the reality precluded me from having an interest in an open protocol or interest in seeing these communications evolve.
If you hate a thing, it’s really easy to avoid it usually, particularly in this case
This is what I’m seeing here.
“Lemmy would be better if it wasn’t an echo chamber. There’s no variety in opinion.”
“Well, if you don’t agree with us you can leave!”
🤦🏻♂️
Where “agree” means “don’t find it to be a shitty platform”
Just seems like an odd thing to get defensive about.
And it seems odd to me to use a platform to talk about how much you dislike it.
