Reddit has been actively alienating users who despise fascism, so these pro-fash topical whinges are only going to grow more echo-chambery

The opposite of authoritarian extremism is probably libertarian extremism

I feel like it shouldn’t be very difficult to get along on Lemmy - assuming you’re not simping for fascism, for example.

Some very active niche communities never really took off on Reddit though. For example, the DECA game “Realm of the Mad God” - the subreddit didn’t particularly add to the community, you’d find more engagement on the game’s Discord. So maybe there’s a different platform more tuned to your niche interest.

I do like pineapple in Asian chicken/rice dishes, but I was raised on beef burgers topped with pickle, ketchup, cheese, lettuce, tomato and bacon and that’s my burger comfort zone.

What happens to everyone who’s been silenced on that platform is hopefully they contribute to other social media that aren’t blatantly pro-fash

Sorry this happened to you. The Reddit we loved is evidently being intentionally reduced to yet another reactionary / fascist echo chamber, like Xitter.

I don’t know if Reddit’s board are just enthusiastic regime toadies, or if the regime has leverage over CEO u/spez Huffman in connection with his tenure as r/Jailbait mod. Either way, it’s not going back, so fediverse is the way forward.

It used to be so idealistic that he was a r/Jailbait mod and no investors saw that as toxic until newsmedia publicized that

Reddit CEO u/spez Huffman never shook his compromised past as r/Jailbait mod. If there’s leverage for the regime to pressure Reddit’s compliance with favorable content policy, I think it’s connected to that.

It’s also not a very far stretch to suppose that Ghislaine Maxwell’s suspected account u/MaxwellHill, which was a resourceful driver of userbase and content development, connects Huffman to Jeffrey Epstein’s suppressed guest lists.

You will never see an explicit announcement from a social media platform “so hay guise we’re not allowed to criticize the regime, thanks for your cooperation”. There won’t be policy transparency.
