along with the strong censoring that has occurred on reddit throughout the years, they have now removed r/all from the app and while using a desktop/laptop browser. instead of being able to stumble upon new subreddits you never knew existed, it wants to curate what you’re allowed to see

    rage baiting on here is exploding. world news and news community are like 75% rage bait with editorialized headline nonsense the past month. and it gets tons of commentary, and if you point out the editorializing and the lies you get downvoted or reported by the delsuional nutbags.

    shit’s wild.

            If you had a sliver of self awareness, you’ll see why you’re proving his point. But you don’t and you won’t, so you’ll continue making up stuff about me, this further demonstrating the spirit of his claim.

                    Looks like I actually need to write it out, how disappointing.

                    His point is that Lemmy is full of echo chambers that are filled with ragebait content and editorialized headlines that are hostile to criticism. This is a valid criticism, he’s basically calling out disingenuous behaviors. Whether you agree or disagree with his claim is irrelevant, the point is that his claim stands on its own.

                    Now instead of addressing his point directly, you decided to attack his character with no proof… which is the same type of disingenuous behavior that he was criticizing. Your own comments prove his point. I pointed this out to you, and you started doing the same thing to me.

                    Squirming around about how you’re a victim of my male observations is not going to change the fact your flawed counter criticism is just that nor does it invalidate what I said about you.

      I was banned from News, and blocking it was the best thing that’s happened to Lemmy. My All feed went from 7/38 Trump posts to 1 out 38 Trump posts.

      The high frequency of simple two sentence comments like, “I bet MAGA is sad right now. XD. Those subhuman conerva-stupids are getting what they deserve,” suggests that the perceived popularity might not be real.

      I think this platform would become more popular if political subreddits weren’t automatically included in the All feed. There aren’t enough people to dilute the propoganda. It gives a bad first impression.

        I just unsubscribed to News myself for the same reason. I do like keeping up with what’s going on in the world, but what gets posted is WAY too much politics. It brings in the negativity, and in your opinion that negativity spreads. I read a thread the other day about the Artemis launch and the top comments were all negative. It takes me not want to post or engage.

        I’m going to start browsing only subscribed communities and see if that is any different.
