The worst thing is that the linux circlejerk leaks even to communities focused on other platforms, like apple, nintendo, microsoft, google. Effectively these communities are permanently brigaded.
The issue is there just isn’t as much pull for the European/Canadian/Asian communities yet.
Every now and then I check to see if any activity has upticked in any of the UK subs yet, but the first post is always like a month ago. What can ya do.
only because you keep joining them, i blocked out the main politics instances/communities, and there was significantly less of those annoying ragebait posts that you cant seem to think if its a tankie posts, or astroturfed pro-israeli post. even on reddit i avoided most of them, because i been burned one too many times by those subs for pointing out ragebaiting, or bigotry.
That is a naive point IMO. I have a 50+ word long block list, and I’m still getting US politics, tankie propaganda or climate doomer post on my mainly meme feed. I haven’t figured out how to properly filter them out, but at that point the platform would look almost abandoned from the perceived lack of posts.
Probably because >50% of the posts on here are about depressing American politics
Or “windows sucks, yay linux!“
