FISHNETS , 13 days ago to nostupidquestions in Is it just me or do Lemmy communities tend to skew left wing? Why might this be?

Is that the case? I know tankies are behind Lemmy, but did they explicitly create it with the purpose of being shared with leftists?

FISHNETS , 3 months ago to asklemmy in Lemmy Babies of the Rexodus - it's been 9 months, how has Lemmy changed you?

I still use reddit from time to time, but I find the stuff i find here is of higher quality and more thoughtful. I would use Lemmy exclusively if it had all of the communities that i frequent on reddit, many of the things on here are tech-related and most things outside of the tech world don’t pop up in my feed. I feel I engage more, use more and actually learn more from Lemmy so overall I am quite impressed!

FISHNETS , 8 months ago to technology in Europe gives Elon Musk 24 hours to respond about Israel-Hamas war misinformation and violence on X

I would argue a major difference between misinformation on some place like Lemmy and misinformation on Twitter, is that Musk as owner of Twitter is amplifying this misinformation. Elon Musk frequently replies to people spreading misinfo and shouts out their accounts.

FISHNETS , 8 months ago to asklemmy in Will the world ever stop being anti-intellectual?

FISHNETS , 9 months ago to technology in Unity reportedly told dev Planned Parenthood and children's hospital are "not valid charities"

I can understand Planned Parenthood maybe, heavily disagree, but whatever.

But a children’s hospital? How could that ever be classed as a “political group”?

What a joke.
