    I miss some of the more casual subreddits, and somehow Lemmy is even more of an echo chamber than Reddit is, but otherwise yeah, Lemmy is fine. Especially with the Photon frontend.

      Yeah I really miss the trumpers responding constantly to anything about him with absolute bullshit lies. That really added perspective to my worldview. Now, if we could only get some more people to join Lemmy who despise Linux /s

        There are centrists and even conservatives out there in the world who have valid perspectives and values but who are not Trumpers.

          Yes, valuable perspectives like UnIpArTy!!!1 and bOtH sIdEs!!!1

          Edit: I want to agree with your sentiment though, really. I’m just jaded after several years of seeing disingenuous views expressed. Trump isn’t really one I can abide by letting off the hook but I’ve seen that attempted by MANY centrists to the point that I no longer can believe there exists a such thing as a “centrist”.

      I mean, it’s our fault as leftists that it is an echo chamber. We have forgotten how to talk about polemic issues among ourselves. I bet we lemmings have big differences (in the details) but we are afraid of bans or talking to walls, so…
