I’ve not been here long, but I’m curious how users who were present before the reddit drama feel about any potential changes to the content and tone of discussions.

      Well, yeah?

      Why would we want to be here when it was only a bunch of douches role playing as Stalin?

      Like I remember visiting when CTH left reddit and Lemmy has certainly come along way in having a functioning user base these past few weeks.

        So don’t come here? You’ve got plenty of other options. Why come into leftist spaces then complain about how you don’t like how leftist it is?

          What does “here” refer to? You’re on Lemmy.world, your instance has never been a “leftist space” afaik.

          Lemmy is software, not a “space”. The network is ActivityPub, also not known for being “leftist”.

            idk tell that to all the users complaining about “too many tankies” on lemmy. I’m not the one who turned this into a conversation about ideology, I’m just responding to it.

          Because it’s not a “leftist space.” It’s a federated Web platform with many communities. If any of you identipols want a safe space go setup some password protected forum somewhere.
