along with the strong censoring that has occurred on reddit throughout the years, they have now removed r/all from the app and while using a desktop/laptop browser. instead of being able to stumble upon new subreddits you never knew existed, it wants to curate what you’re allowed to see

    For me it was the bots, rage-bait and doxing. I hope Lemmy stays niche, cuz’ in my experience - popularity = trash community.

      Celebrity worship(or worship in general) is always my stopping point. 9/10 posts on reddit now are meme with, or posts about some actor.

      rage baiting on here is exploding. world news and news community are like 75% rage bait with editorialized headline nonsense the past month. and it gets tons of commentary, and if you point out the editorializing and the lies you get downvoted or reported by the delsuional nutbags.

      shit’s wild.

        I was banned from News, and blocking it was the best thing that’s happened to Lemmy. My All feed went from 7/38 Trump posts to 1 out 38 Trump posts.

        The high frequency of simple two sentence comments like, “I bet MAGA is sad right now. XD. Those subhuman conerva-stupids are getting what they deserve,” suggests that the perceived popularity might not be real.

        I think this platform would become more popular if political subreddits weren’t automatically included in the All feed. There aren’t enough people to dilute the propoganda. It gives a bad first impression.

        You get downvoted and reported because of your extreme views on women and your petulant whining about how your “facts” about Israel make people think you’re a Zionist.
