r/politics problem isn’t that it’s infested with maga nonsense….idk what you’re even talking about.

R/politics problem is that it’s a doomer cesspool that doesn’t actually like talking about politics, but likes to complain and talk about Trump all the time.

I’m a borderline socialist, so pretty left leaning, and that subreddit is way too toxic for me. I’m not interested in that type of discourse.

It’s 100% going to be.

Lemmy isn’t “special”. I’ve already seen hot takes and other things to get people riled up on Lemmy.

Lemmy got rid of the auto refresh you’re referring to. No more live updates.

I’m in it until this happens.

Ah you mean the channel itself. Never used it myself.

You trying to guilt people into generating content? Lol.

This isn’t a job. This is for leisure. No one should force it.

The Roku sells well? Hell from a quick search, looks like they are #1.

I disagree. What made Reddit for me is that there were so many people on it, than any niche hobby had it’s own space.

Sure the main big subreddits were shit shows, but the hobby subreddits were great! Something that still isn’t a thing for Lemmy. Specialization.

I still find myself checking Reddit out for subreddits on specific niche games for example.

Like there is literally a subreddit for almost anything. Robot vacuums. Sins of a Solar Empire. Crusader kings. Fish tanks. MotoGP.

Things that probably will take a while to get running on Lemmy.

Right now Lemmy is too “general” for me to really have a feed of things I actually care about.

No, I don’t care at all. If I want to speak to Romanians, I go on r/Romania, r/RoCasual, etc. etc.

We are only 20 million people. Americans are 330 million, and its an English speaking site. I don’t expect to see Romanians catered to in any way what so ever in the generic subs.

You guys are nuts if you let it bother you.

Literally makes no sense.

I mean if you’re gonna be making a literal english joke like this, then if there is no user input, then there is no user input to sanitize, which means no excuse is needed.

Can we please stop with the misinformation campaign.

Everyone on here is trying to pat each other on the back by being better than Reddit.

So far no one on here acts differently from Reddit, no matter how much you guys like to pretend lol.

“Shadow accounts” lol. It’s literally your instagram account. Threads is built on top of Instagram. None of this is some hidden secret.

Well I can kinda see where they are coming from. How do you know it’s gonna stick around if it can’t make money? It isn’t even about making a profit either, but covering costs.

There are costs associated with hosting all this stuff. Right now donations are how instances keep the lights on (most of the time).

What happens when there is more and more users joining?

This is borderline toxic management lol.

I don’t like it, and will always apologize if it is my fault.

Honestly, I think its terrible advice lol. This is the type of shit that makes people not like management.

As Reddit has proven, this is not how the masses use downvotes. I have seen unpopular, but harmless opinions be downvoted.

I have seen people getting downvoted heavily by saying they don’t like x game. That creates echo chambers.

What nuanced discourse? That already isn’t happening on many topics lol.

Saw a guy earlier call all Twitter users idiots, cause they are on Twitter. What nuance is that?

Well, you have one of my recommendations of a Shield with a 3rd party launcher lol. My other would be an Apple TV.

NSFW means no ads as well.

I also remember the announcement was sexually explicit content won’t be served through the api, so they must have a way to differentiate then.

Trees is still around, so idk lol.
