I don't think I'm on my phone as much but I do miss /r/BlackPeopleTwitter. I bet the posts about the Montgomery Brawl we're top notch.

Sync user so it looks and basically feels the same. Just the volume of posts is missing. My other issue is I used a lot of smaller communities and they haven't migrated.... Yet. So it's hard to get answers to things without going back to the /r which I try to avoid.
There’s a LOT of extremist left wingers but it’s ok because there’s a down arrow and block buttons. Oddly enough I haven’t seen much extremist right wing stuff plus I don’t have to care if someone doesn’t like me here so I’m less concerned about being honest.

Lemmy blows and is missing vitally important features. In a decade, other people will finally figure it out once the tankies who control development exploit the information they've been farming against the users, put in updates that prevent defederation from their instances, fill the Lemmyverse with propaganda and/or start doxxing the liberals and alt right dipshits they hate.
I am personally trying to figure out what alternatives I could use. This instance seems alright for now, but after the last few I have been to, I don't really have faith in the platform. We'll see how this instance turns out, I guess.
Too left wing, too much circlejerk. One sided discussions that feel AI generated. Controversial comments will get you banned in many cases. Worse mods than reddit easily.
It started out ok but is just a pointless echo chamber everywhere I look. Maybe I'm weird, but I WANT to view opposing viewpoints. That's how you learn things.
