Is Beehaw less of an echo chamber? Reading their sidebar it seems like it would be even more of one. I'm curious as to why you think I might be happier there. Is it easier to navigate somehow?

I only joined yesterday or the day before but I have to admit, I'm not loving this place so far. Adding communities that are not part of this instance is a giant PITA. The whole instance getting federated or defederated seemingly at the whim of the instance host is a bit sus to me too. Also, for some reason when I'm typing it just keeps having a popup saying "report created" in the bottom left. This place also is just as much of an echo chamber as Reddit from what I have seen, which is by far my biggest gripe with Reddit.

Loli is still literally in the name. Twitter freaks still try to cancel it.

But when somebody is literally asking for the definition of something, and the wrong definition is given, that's not a visual perception issue, that's misinformation.

BTW: thank you for actually talking about this. Most people nowadays are too pig headed to have an actual conversation.

I wasn't even talking about whether or not it should be included in the feed. I was just saying their definition is completely wrong. Defining things improperly is the basis for spreading misinformation about something.

Oh come on, the examples I gave are one in their twenties, one in college, and one who's a god. Their stories completely revolve around them being their ages. You are doing the exact conflating of the two I was talking about.
