Also has barely any community, is leaning deep into praising authoritarian countries, is gloryfying violence and has huge moderation issues. You can make everything sound good, but lemmy will never be a true alternative. It will grab a wave of people, lose it till the next controversy pops up and the cycle will repeat. Till there is an actual alternative that becomes available. Same as with Mastodon and Bluesky
Like... more than Reddit? Do you have some examples so we can see which countries you think are authoritarian? Some... groups... believe Canada is authoritarian.
This user has always been very negative towards the platform, not sure why
I think this user might be unable to separate non black the white discussions on communism with "supporting Russia and China".
