Is lemmy just going to become reddit 2.0? - sh.itjust.works
sh.itjust.works
The more I use lemmy, the more it begins to just feel like all the same problems reddit had. It has the same problems with major communities having far left moderation standards that only apply to the right, the same hive mind users that just spam the same tired out leftist talking points over and over while refusing anything close to an actual discussion. The only upsides are that downvotes aren’t used to punish you site wide, and the handful of non-leftist instances that exist, though they always end up defederated by all the major instances, effectively making them poor spaces for general discussion. So what are your thoughts? Is this just the “more like under new management” from megamind? Is there hope for it to become a decent platform for everyone, not just the left?

Edit: yeah, it’s just as bad. Fuck the retarded admins and fuck the left

    Great question. Here are your answers:

    • I am not trolling. I am asking you a serious question, honestly.
    • You seem to be fine with having a conversation but you keep deflecting the questions I am asking with ad homimen (that means argument against the person, its a logical fallacy - fallacy meaning falsehood - false meaning wrong) attacks. This leads me to beleive you can’t come up with a rebuttle.

    This was just my first question of many but if you’re too scared to try to have a real honest discussion like every republican I have ever met then you will need to run off to your safespace.

    One more shot, kid. I have to get work done. Work is a place where services are exchanged for money. Money can be used to buy things. Let me know if anything else is still unclear for you and I can clarify once I am done working for the day.

    I am sure you have some job you can blow.

        Deflect, deflect, deflect.

        So, you’ve accused me of trolling, left and right despite me not trolling.

        You can’t answer a single question.

        You sure you aren’t already an elected official?

        You sure sound like an idiot.
