I can’t really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by “both” sides of the spectrum. It’s just something I find interesting.

    What if I told you reddits antiwork was basically a glimpse of everything we’re seeing on far left Lemmy. Lemmy just doesn’t have a honeymoon stage for it.

      antiwork was one of the last leftist places to ban me. They held out for a long time … until I thanked them for it one day at which point they immediately banned me.

      I literally wrote a comment like “You guys are always willing to talk despite our disagreements and I’m thankful for that” and I got banned within hours.

        I should write a survival guide to Linux. Its okay to have a differing opinion man. My advice is just don’t go seeking out the hornets nest and know when to read the room. I saw some garbage earlier today that was borderline racist ironically from a left POV and I just left it alone.

        Gotta know when to hold 'em and know when to fold 'em. The beauty of the fediverse is that everyone gets a total democracy in bans, where they’ll sign up, etc and its a two way street.
