I've noticed that lemmy as a whole is much more leftist than reddit (outside of political servers of course) (lemmy.world)

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.

Left and right are artificial, meaningless constructs

Left and right are very useful construct... as a spectrum... on multiple axis.

It just seems completely meaningless, because so much here is tainted by the US perspective. And neither do they have a spectrum (with just two parties), nor multiple axis (again, two parties can't represent nuanced opinion on different topics). In fact they don't even have left and right, just right-wing and more far-right.
