I know and it's scary. Lemmy seems a million times better and I'm so glad I found it

Ugh I know. There's always been people online who just wanna fight but reddit just seems to have got nasty. The heart has gone, used to be you got random charity drives starting in comment chains and stuff like that, I've not seen that in ages.

I'm new so would you mind giving me directions? I've noticed there's duplicate communities on different instances. Some of them don't let me join or comment, is it cos I'm not a member of that instance?

Yep it's got nearly as bullshit as facebook. FACEBOOK. That's something I never thought I'd see.

Yep it's out of control. There's a lot of research showing extremist groups utilise social media to help spread propaganda, misinformation and recruit people. Cults can be political. It's really scary

Yep, its got pretty extreme. So many comments seem to be bots, and it really feels like you're being pushed in a certain direction. I can't fathom how it got so bad
