    Lemmy also has landmine topics. There are many dedicated vegans and communists, for example

    And more people see everything, as there is less content, so talking positively about capitalism or meat will earn you down-votes initially (and permanently if it’s buried or actually wrong)

      Maybe it’s due to population size, but I’m beginning to feel like Lemmy is a worse echo chamber than Reddit. And yes, I have noticed the landmines and people getting overly downvoted for stating simple opinions.

      I’m not so sure this is the place for me anymore. I’ll stick around for now, but I may leave if something else comes along.

        It’s a mix of size and the founder population who are still a significant fraction of the population
