Indeed, it's making me want to go back to Reddit.

I left when the API price changes kicked in and at first Lemmy was alright, then the extremists turned up and the echo chamber in here is so ridiculous that there just isn't much point in being here.

Not just the pedo apologists (next step will be AI CP actually being posted here and people defending it as "art"), but also seeing that YouTube is trying to stop freeloaders leeching from it and somehow that's evil literally every single day and seeing how evil cars are literally every single day and seeing how Linux is the next coming of Jesus literally every single day (and I say that as a 20+ year Linux user) is incredibly tedious.

Sure, this existed on Reddit as well, but at least there was actually other content to dilute it and for the most part people were reasonable instead of the rabid extremism I'm seeing every day here. There is no way in hell I would have seen the up/downvote ratio like I'm seeing in this pedo apologist conversation on Reddit.

Maybe it's time to go back.

Pity. Oh well.
