I finally made the move to setting up an account here and wean my reddit usage.
It’s getting so bad on there, so many bots, trolls, and paid agitators. Plus the uptick in fascist apologists. Smaller communities with higher bars to entry produce better conversation, in my experience.
The bots have really ramped up since Trump took office again. Seeing so many top comments with thousands of upvotes just gaslighting the shit out of frightened Americans, telling them they need to touch grass and everything is fine…it’s so chilling.

Yeah, I was starting to feel a bit crazy with how many were coming out of the woodwork with almost exactly that same wording, even in my city’s sub.
This place is so much better for actually discussing things.
