Without propaganda ?
Yep they said it lmao
They probably mean advertising, it's a close word in other languages
That's the main thing I hate about Lemmyverse is that the zealots and puritans came over too.
They always think you mean someone else when you say "please stop constantly trying to shoehorn your politics into everything"
My dude, everything is politics. Especially things like "I want a free internet" or "I don't want to be drowning in ads" which is a huge part of the appeal of Lemmy are both DEEPLY political stances.
Actually, I'm going to add something to my last reply.
"not wanting to be drowning in ads" is in no way shape or form a political decision.
If you mean "because adverts are capitalism" then you're part of the deeply naive problem.
It's perfectly plausible - because it literally has happened - for people to construct a platform under our system (which is also hybrid anywat) that allows for social media to exist without adverts.
You're literally the kind of person when I mean when I talk about trying too shoe-horn politics into things when it doesn't belong.
I see you can't understand the difference between zealotry and normal discussion.
"I don't want ro drowning in ads" doesn't have to mean "but trump is Hitler evil Jews did this blah blah everyone who isn't of my opinion is a murderer"
