Unlike previous attempts at trying reddit alternatives (like Voat), kbin and much of the lemmyverse doesn’t seem to be plagued with extreme far right buffoonery. (kbin.social)

It’s one thing to have differing views, but I’ve seen enough attempted reddit migrations to be relieved that the popular communities in the fediverse so far haven’t been about crazy racist stuff or other extreme right bullshit.

I am also glad that I’m getting away from reddit’s general political shitposting, which was more left leaning. You couldn’t have any proper discourse on there, and even I with my generally more left leaning views recognized that.

This is my thought exactly. As it becomes easier and easier to use these sites, with apps and everything, we will start to see more crazy and stupid conservatives.

They're too stupid to figure it out at the moment. Most of them at least. And the ones who aren't, are the ones who are aware that they're ideology is trash, but they are using it for financial and/or tax reasons.

    As long as they create their own spheres that aren't federated with this one I don't care. They'll probably run into the same problems as Voat did and get kicked by their hosters sooner or later.
