Was gonna say, I'm sat on 2.2k comments apparently in about 15 months, which is surprising to me given I probably only comment on about half the days in any given week.
I will say compared to Reddit though, I tend to be more likely to comment here because there're fewer people here and I want it to feel active enough for more people to continue joining (either lemmy in general, or just on smaller communities that don't have a lot of activity yet).
And the ratio of bots to humans on reddit is crazy high. There's a lot less garbage to wade through here.
There's less advertising but more propaganda
That's just keeping me in good practice, though.
Fair point. I see that as a potential silver lining in this whole Kremlin disinformation era. At least some people will see it for what it is and learn.
And it is the responsibility of those of us who do see the propaganda to call it out for what it is, so that passers-by who may not see it so clearly can learn from our experience.
Absolutely.
The dictator alliance (Kremlin, CCP, Pyongyang, Tehran) are using our open societies and free speech against us. We need to use it against them too.
It tends to come from... ah... certain sources though.
I have about half as many comments. Its a better space to be in. It feels like im talking to real people here. At least not as jaded lol.
