    lemmy.world users when lemmy.ml user don’t immediately suck up to political propaganda

    There’s a reason why having both world news communities from both instances is a good thing. You’ll receive a much wider range of sources and bias, as well as the perspective of people who don’t completely agree with you.

    Staying within on instance community creates an echo chamber like reddit. There’s even such a wild difference within lemmy.world between c/Politics and c/News, despite them often posting similar news and info.

      That’s why I often interact with Truth Social /s

      Lemmy.ml is run by people who spread authoritarian propaganda, most likely the CCP. It’s a real stain on Lemmy and people shouldn’t support or legitimize it in any way.

          Exhibit A of the original dev’s moderation style

          Fuck that guy, best thing he did was make Lemmy open source so it can grow beyond their tiny little world view

    I see this as an absolute win! The point of decentralized social media is that discussion happens across many different linked sites. It doesn’t work if lemmy.world is the only big site out there.

    Sure have your beef with the admins of another server, but why get upset that discussions are happening there?

      It’s only really a problem when comments get removed or people get banned because they have opposing views.

      It’s important that one group of people should not be able to monopolize the discussion. I believe it’s important to the long-term health of the fediverse even if I don’t agree with some of those groups.

      • I agree there, but only if both sides of an argument are arguing in good faith. A lot of chucklenuts out there just want to start shit with bullshit arguments or to simply be contrarian. If one side is rational and using actual evidence while the other is blatantly pulling shit from their ass, that’s not good for anything.
