Lol thank you for the heads up. I’ve already made a new account on lemmy.world and immediately blocked the entire lemmy.ml instance loll. I’ll be adding hexbear now😂

Holy shit there’s a lot of tankies on here lol

I’ll take your word on that for now. Tragic if true. Thankfully I’ve no problem calling out silliness when I see :)

To give you a real answer and not a canned response by a North Korean propagandist lol, the uptick in Korea-posting is probably due to the fact that Trump and the South Korean president met either yesterday or the day before, and the meeting (afaik) went well. I’m no fan of Trump, but I can also recognize that SK is a long-standing US ally, so I’m glad things went well. Obviously, NK is pissed that it went well so they’re sending out propaganda for dipshit “leftist” westerners to parrot brainlessly while also likely having their own people comment on places like this.

International politics is weird nowadays and everything revolves around social unity/division through internet platforms.

Least obvious anti-western propagandist account lmao. Dumbass goes “liberal this, liberal that” and in the same breath in their post history is linking articles/sites/self-posts that are sympathetic to Russia, DPRK, etc.

“All states are bad” “yay anarchy” stfu dude, maybe when you get a little older you’ll understand anarchy is the dumbest fucking thing you can push if you’re trying to destabilize the West lol.

Yea, it seems for the more niche topics/interests/hobbies, Reddit may still be required.

It’s annoying because I’ve always been a lurker-commenter and don’t really post, but if I want to be the change I wanna see in the world — I’m going to have to start making posts here😂

Thank you! I stumbled upon Voyager and it’s been giving me some major nostalgia for the Apollo Reddit app lol.

Yea filtering may be the way to go. The problem is like to stay in the loop and engage in SOME politics, just everything in moderation. Hate when my feed on Reddit for example, is ENTIRELY Trump-related or politicized news. It’s just a bit draining after a while. I appreciate the heads up! I’m glad that I can already tell the community is a bit better about it here because none of my fellow leftists have commented jumping down my throat saying “too bad”😂

That + I have begun to loathe the average “user” there + the Admin AI bot decided my comment making commentary on Reddit’s generally poor culture through very thick ironic language constituted “harassment” and perma-banned me. My 14 year old account - 2 “offenses” (one was valid) and it’s gone. I’ve appealed but it has been 8 days with no action.

It’s also just “people” parroting the same cold take like it’s hot over and over to farm karma. Yes Trump sucks, yes Epstein files need to be released, yes progressive policy, but like cmon, can we have SOME days where we can escape and just enjoy the internet guys? IRL is miserable enough lmao.

Ban-happy power tripping mods, recycled low-effort content, a generally discouraging attitude toward nuanced takes and critical thinning, and an absurd amount of bots and propaganda has really made me want to migrate. Anyways I’m here now, and I hope to contribute to this platform in a constructive and positive way! I welcome any pointers or advice!
