Title basically. I was here at the very start of it all and really enjoyed it. However I felt it lost its uniqueness within a few months of mass migration and started turning a bit like reddit again so I deleted my old account. However Reddit has only gotten much much worse since, and Lemmy has stayed about the same. So here again.
Considering how much of an angry echo chamber it is, it really feels like a lefty truth social. Or at least that’s how I describe it to non-users.
I guess it depends on what communities you’re participating in. Lemmy is definitely left wing but I’d never describe it as remotely similar to the Truth social cesspool.
I’ve found a lot more that needed to be blocked than I actually want to actively participate in. But maybe that’s just fatigue from all the churn here during the initial reddit API fiasco.
I guess if I blocked literally any community that got political the Truth Social comparison wouldn’t feel so apt to me.
