There are mentorship and professional groups there that aren’t available elsewhere.
Plus, the local groups for my town/state provide crucial information about weather, taxes, traffic, river safety, etc. In general, it’s a good source of knowledge.
I hate that I’m giving up privacy, but there are also no other social media networks that can compete. I can’t message/Signal my closest 5,000 neighbors to find out which local/free berry patch is ready for picking. But, there’s a fb group for that.
Don’t people use it mainly as a calendar? You can see events near you and get alerts to those you’ve signed up for. There are alternatives of course but I feel a lot firms and people publicize their event through Facebook.
All the tankie (far “left”) shit. It’s all either bad faith arguments (trolling), blatant propaganda or people who never bothered to fact check the propaganda.
They also create an inordinate amount of communities, had to use the “block instance” button a lot.
NSFW stuff also gets annoying after a while, but that seems less prevalent. (Just had to block one instance to get 99%)
Looking at my block list, the AI images and niece music stuff also got added at some point.
Who knows how many are active, but yeah it’s really bad. I’ll be power scrolling All for random porn (I see something blurred out), I click on it, oh fuck, my eyes. Lol
Some of these names, too. It makes me laugh. “Welcome to… Gay Fisting”. 😆
Tankie is far left? I thought it was far right. I admit I never really was sure, though.
If you’re in America, do you see the entire rest of the g-20 as really far left? They do free healthcare and schooling in the g-20 but require almost as much tax as America, and I’m wondering if that makes them appear really far left given America’s parties are center-right and far-right and everyone could have that as their point of view.
I mostly see tankies as an authoritarian (far right?) group pretending to be far left. Or at least that’s how they brand it, even though they openly advocate for government confiscation of all property.
What is non-communist “leftism” though? That’s so vague. Unless you just mean non-communist anarchists I guess. I prefer the label “far-left” which I think is much more clear about meaning “communists and anarchists”. “Leftist” is so vague and many radlibs seem to self-identify that way.
Anything US-politics and anything erotic, like almost every community from furry & anime instances. Also every non-English communities like feddit.de and some hobby communities I don’t care for. Over time my feed got way cleaner and more fun to sift through.
