I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I’ve noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I’ve filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it’s insane. I don’t know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn’t become the same type of echo chamber of anger.
Unrelated, but it’s kind of weird that [email protected] is US politics even though there’s nothing American about lemmy.world
Probably due to reddit’s r/politics being centered on USA politics. A lot of communities are redditors migrating their subreddits to a lemmy instance, and lemmy.world is the most popular with them.
The web is American.
The web knows it is American because it knows what isn’t American and it also knows what it means to be American by knowing what doesn’t mean to be American.
