Last night, I finally made the switch from Reddit to Lemmy. Honestly it was something I should have done a long time ago. I’d been hearing about Lemmy for a while, but I kept brushing it off because it seemed complicated or too niche or too techy. But after one too many encounters with power-hungry mods, desperate upvote chasers, and a flood of obvious bots, I hit my breaking point. I actually ended up learning more about Lemmy from people venting on Reddit itself, which was kind of ironic!!
I set up an account here, took a last look around Reddit, and bailed. Reddit used to feel like a genuine community, but now it’s just a money-hungry platform, clearly trying to squeeze out every dollar as it spirals down. Lemmy might be new to me, but at least here, it feels like voices still matter. I know you guys already know this, but I want to throw it out there: You all are right!
Welcome, I don’t care about american politics(or any sort of politics) but you love Trump and most Lemmy user hate Trump I guess(I am not american I don’t care). You are going to have hard time here.
oh. Well I’ll try to ignore the haters and just carry on. politics isn’t the only thing i like anyway
All you’ve posted about is Donald Trump positive shit and Kamala Harris negative shit. Try posting about some of these other non political things and maybe people won’t hate you.
As opposed to all the people who post Kamala Harris positive shit, and negative Donald Trump shit, correct? Hey man, to each their own. If someone doesn’t like me because of my political views, ok. i don’t really take politics that seriously.

Yeah you’re not gonna have a good time if you talk about politics here, as very few people share your beliefs. But there are plenty of non-political communities you can be a part of.
i’ve definitely found that out that some of the political guys aren’t fans of me already. but the non-political communites have been very cool like you said.
