Lemmy, though I admit two days ago I put on political filters. I'll open the flood gates again in a couple weeks.
That being said, before Lemmy I hadn't used main stream social outside of Reddit for years anyway.
May want to give that four years or so. It's just going to be predictable, depressing slog with no avenue to affect change between here and there
Be local. A voice at a local meeting has the potential to have more impact in your life than your side being president. This is why my feed will start in 2-weeks, vs 4-years, no matter how much I want to keep that filter on ๐
