    K. Then might I suggest you spend your time on X, reddit, or Truth Social instead of Lemmy? Perhaps you’ll be much happier amongst like-minded people.

    Your statement would have more impact if you said it with a account with a posting history not made today.

    Sure Lemmy has a bias, your earnest participation can add more voices to the discourse.

    I mean yeah, it’s not a multi million business running the instances of lemmy, just some people around the world so I could understand why “poor”

    But what’s wrong about being progressive ?

    I don’t get this sub, it’s called unpopular opinion, but when one is posted it gets downvoted?
    Shouldn’t this sub be called something else then?

      There’s no effort here. If he said “Lemmy is more woke than reddit and here’s why” and gave detailed, fact-based responses then sure, we’ll have a listen. But to just pop in and say something is ‘woke’ with no exposition, no reasoning, and zero effort, yeah, it’s going to be downvoted.

      I often downvote on post quality. This post has “no body needed”, which leads to crap content. Tell us why, or it is just noise.

    • This isn’t reddit, there is no rule saying you have to up vote it if you disagree. It’s just a space you can put an opinion that you think is unpopular, and no one cares about votes anyways.

      When I see a stupid title I often don’t even look at the sub its in before voting.

    Let me translate

    “Reddit was clearly a huge pile of ass. However, Lemmy is showing signs of the onset of a similar pattern of degradation – most notably, trolls and shouty bad-faith argumentative users make it an unpleasant experience whenever any political topic is discussed. What proportion of them are deliberate trolls or paid shills, and what proportion actual homegrown obnoxious leftists, is unknowable and probably not super relevant. What is relevant is that the problem of creating meaningful discussion and an honest forum for good communication is by no means solved, simply because we’ve set up a nice network outside of the administrative control of bad-faith actors. We still have a lot of work to do to make it actually a nice place to exist.”

    “Also side note Lemmy has some UI and UX issues but honestly who gives a fuck, Reddit also had a miserable UI for all of its lifetime and that didn’t make much of a difference, because the quality of the discussion is what makes a social network good or bad.”

    (Edit: Also, I upvoted this purely for that fact of stating an actually unpopular opinion)

    “Poor and woke” is great!

    Unfortunately, it’s not accurate. There are a lot of fairly well-off people here who come into threads guns blazing to defend the status quo.

      I’ve been seeing you around a lot lately. I’ve yet to see you post something I disagree with.
      Keep up the good fight
