With the war in Pakistan i had to download reddit, insta and twitter to keep up.
I genuinely despise them so much and going back to non lemmy social media after so long just reminds me of how fucking grateful I am that Lemmy exists.
Bluesky is fine simply bc there is noone there. The people who post moved but the masses didn’t.
LinkedIn in lunatics.
Reddit is probably the one ive ended up gating more than any other despite it being the one I could bear pre Lemmy.
Twitter I haven’t used much anyways. But feels horrible with the limited use.
Insta is all thirst traps somehow.
The way Reddit fosters echo-chambers probably makes it the worst in my book.
Lemmy is quickly becoming the same way. People have started entire threads in different forums to try to get me banned from Lemmy, just because they don’t agree with me. Rather than just be mad at me and block me, they legit go to other threads, and even call out admins, in an effort to get me banned from every instance.
All because I didn’t vote the way they wanted me! lolol
I still prefer Lemmy to Reddit though!
Reddit might be bad but the garbage rage baiting and algorithms designed to show you the dumbest takes on twitter and threads is sooo much worse in my opinion
As if the idea of a sub wasn’t echo chambery enough you add downvotes to that
It’s also heavily manipulated by PsyOps operators at Eglin Air Force Base[1], and censored by a US intel agent[2].
