    My experience is only with Lemmy.

    Pros:

    • My app functions

    Cons:

    • Significantly reduced amount of content
    • Most of my content from Reddit is not available here or has an incredibly small community
    • A tremendous number of posts are polarized to the point of being aggressive
    • A disturbingly large number of openly suicidal comments (Eg. “I see no reason to live except…” )
    • Seemingly every climate-related post has someone stating “eat the rich” as a solution to the climate

    Overall, mostly negative, but since the alternative for me is nothing (my Reddit client of choice doesn’t work), it’s still better than nothing and is something to scroll through briefly while on the toilet.

      Seemingly every climate-related post has someone stating “eat the rich” as a solution to the climate

      I wonder why that is? Could there be a relation?

        The rich have a really high carbon footprint per kg of meat, even pork and beef have a lower carbon footprint!

        Don’t encourage the billionaire meat industry!

      I agree wholeheartedly, it’s like people in this platform only want to talk about politics. Even with a random unrelated meme people start talking shit about politics it really ruins it for me

      Most climate related posts on most social medias have “eat the rich” as a “solution” I think this is a good idea I think we all love a good bbq

      On a serious note a good solution would be to pay a visit or email a local representative or politician in your local community or nation and asking if they’ll add anti monopoly laws
