Exactly. And on major subreddits it would be much higher. Worldnews at the moment just feels like IDF posting pro-genocide content, commenting, upvoting and agreeing with each other.

Reddit goes in the bin. ๐Ÿšฎ

The thing with r/worldnews isn't only bots, it's also that the mods are trigger-happy when banning people for making unabashed criticisms of Israel and zionism. Keep that attitude for long enough and you'll end up with an echo chamber anywhere.

I'm glad I left, happy I found Lemmy

Same bestie.

I miss the old web before it was just a small bunch of major websites.

Lemmy is good now because it has that old community feel. Hopefully that can be maintained in the future by defederating from corporate and toxic instances.

Yes, the wild west of the internet days. Occasionally you can come across some gems still, but it's not the same lol.
