I’ve been here since the great Reddit Exodus and have seen some good and some bad.

What have you liked and disliked about being on Lemmy so far?

Do you see your usage going up or down?

    I’m finding the politics incredible grating.

    You find a post on All, then realize after commenting on an article or meme that you’ve wandered on to a political instance, wherein you not believing in some niche black and white viewpoint wholeheartedly results in getting shat on.

    I like the memes and commenting on articles, but I’m exhausted by all the politics everywhere all the time.

    I like most everything else, federation is actually pretty good, the server admins do a great job keeping things running, and the 3P apps are getting really solid (the android obes are awesome).

      Yeah, I totally agree. I can’t promise that this community won’t talk about politics at some point because it’s pretty much inevitable for something based on discussion.

      What I can promise is that I do not ban or moderate opposing viewpoints, and have built into the rules that people with different views are not to be downvotee and shunned.

      But then again look at the other threads in here that I’ve created. People from outside the community pop in, read the title, realize it doesn’t agree with them, and then dowvote it all within 30 seconds.

      Well… I’m trying is all I can say.
