Comment on The lemmy.ml Problem
kabe@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoFirst impressions to new users is an important factor, I agree, but is it really"full of extremist political content"?
Scrolling through the first 4 pages of Lemmy World today, I see no extremist content at all. All of the political posts are standard liberal/left-of-centre talking points and the only things related to .ml content are three posts complaining about tankies, off the back of the original post that made a splash yesterday.
I can’t see anything that would be putting potential newcomers off in droves.

Yes, you’re right. I was being facetious and that’s not helpful in this situation.
The Fediverse is full of propaganda, but extremist content is usually limited to Hexbear, Lemmygrad, and lemmy.ml.
Hard to forget Hexbear accounts saying they were going to murder me when they started their revolution, but that’s not a generally a problem in the rest of the Fediverse.
