I’ve noticed that technology discussion is more commonplace on Lemmy than I remember from Reddit.
In what other ways might our demographics be different than Reddit and from other sites?

I’ve noticed lemmy seems to be far more left leaning than reddit
And Reddit is already pretty left leaning, on the whole.
like to the point of being pro communism for some reason
You’re on Lemmy.ml rn lol

It doesn’t help that the devs unironically refer to themselves as tankies.
I mean, it’s not a huge deal because, y’know, it’s a federated service - but you could probably partially attribute the early population’s leanings to that.
haha couldn’t be me
You’d have to qualify that statement…. Left leaning according to which countries’ politics?
In the states for example, the democrat politicians are actually right of center.
If you are calling right of center, “left leaning” then I could possibly agree with you. But I don’t think you are saying what you think you’re saying.

I think that’s a confusing way to look at it. Left is always more left than right, in any country.
I think you see more leftists/socialists on Lemmy than reddit, and fewer conservatives/nationalists than reddit. Liberals are about the same, I think.
I’m just saying the like 80% of Americans support progressive policies, but corporate media calls those same policies radical socialism.
