Is anyone here so hardcore that they don’t even bother with mainstream social media? If its not on Lemmy or Mastodon it must not be important? Anyone that hardcore?

    the only social media I have is Lemmy and mastodon. I prefer Lemmy to mastodon. (I also have kbin)

    I quit Facebook, Reddit, Twitter etc. because of content manipulation. They suppress posts against their agenda and promote those for their agenda. I always knew this, but when I realized I was being influenced, I deleted my accounts and quit.

    Only things I’ll use now are open source, decentralized, and non profit owned. (I’ll gladly donate)

      reddit does it so obvious now, allows right wing content to overtake any other discussion, and discussion of trump is 99% of reddit right now, and not the important things hes doing behind the scenes.

      Lemmy is also being manipulated, but here it’s primarily through users. It’s a problem you’ll have on any social media, particularly if fully anonymous.

        its easier to catch propaganda users here, since theres less people, and block them.
