The interactions around politics still haven't changed. There are more extreme views here though. It's interesting to hop from a pro-Russian left conversation about the war to ones where they don't believe in any regulation at all. More random stuff is rising to the top.

I've managed to steer clear of a lot of it. As a non American, it feels much easier here to not have to wade through a whole lot of comments of people arguing about American politics.

Reddit sort of pathologically turns unrelated discussions into that, probably because of all the shills and bad actors they have creeping about the place.
