At this stage the whole Lemmy project feels like a CIA experiment, part of some as-of-yet unknown group of experiments / operation given a vague name. All the content is on the extremist-side, enforces attitudes perfect to embolden class wars and young people (no doubt the majority of people here) aren’t worldly enough to know the difference. It’s full of AI-generated political memes and comments.

Where’s the trove of knowledge? The awesome positive hobbies? If it’s around, it’s all drown out by the manipulative noise.

This could be easily fixed in the coding of Lemmy, but… it hasn’t.

I’m becoming very di-senlightened by Lemmy, Let the abuse and downvotes ensue.

    This is a case of being the change you want to see in the world. The fediverse contains content you subscribe to or create. It’s trivial to block content you don’t want to see. It’s still small enough that you can effect visible change on it. And if you’re not seeing content you want to see, are able to post that content.
