Well it's just that politics/news are the two main things that most people can talk about. So that's what trends. Many other topics have general interest barriers that naturally have lower ceiling of interests from the roughly 40k active users.
No, its the fact that the same couple of people post across all communitys and drown everything else. I wouldn't be opposed to a daily limit of posts, just to bring the noise down. The only reason i still come here is for the rare, once a week, quality post.
Use "scaled" to see more or smaller communities ?
That's not logistically possible given each instance has its own rules.
But also, at the same time it seems self-evident to me that most of the 40k people here can talk about politics. Most are from the Anglosphere and the daily goings-on are relevant to them in some way. It seems also evident to me that less people here can talk about fishing, or baking because it's of less interest to them. Reddit, by comparison, has a much larger population.
I'm also looking at /all/ and seeing a variety of names.
Stamets, byteonbikes, mtz, lady butterfly, track_shovel.
When you start seeing it, you can't unsee it.
Yeah I see them. I also see some other names too. Small places need active 'power posters'.
Block them if you don't like their posts ?
Ah yes. The common solution to everything. Make my own little universe where everyone and everything is perfect and everyone agrees with me.
I keep things unblocked for a reason.
You are presented with a tool to make the social media you want to see and instead you're just complaining that it isn't in your perfect picture. All the while, not really posting much yourself. You just want more people to post and people like me to post less but you won't do anything to make the social media you want to see. Seems like this is kinda all on you here. You refused to make your bed. Lie in it. Because you know the social media I wanna see? One that attracts people. That's why I post a bunch. To fill the space because people like you just complain and don't do anything.
So honestly? Just put up or shush.
Well said
I certainly could spend my time shitposting and making things worse for you guys, but unlike you I don't actually think that every news article from newsweek or the daily beast is worth regurgitating.
I am commenting on what would make it better and in general bring up the level of debate, even if i have to act Devils Advocate in every single thread it seems.
Then post what you think is valuable.
You've really got this all or nothing mindset, huh? "I HAVE TO POST EVERYTHING ALL DAY SO THEREFORE I POST NOTHING"
K. Whatever you say, sweetie. Have fun with that <3
Edit: lol

Yes? I see nothing wrong in those posts. Are you gonna ban me for calling you out too?
Of course you don't. But the rest of us kinda do with you using ableist slurs, trolling and rejecting the basic rules of most communities to simply be respectful.
How is calling out lies and hypocrisy against the rules exactly? If you'll look again, you'll note that I'm never the one that starts hurling insults. Yet their insults never lead to bans. Funny how that works.
Their behavior does not excuse yours. You still did it. Also, again, ableist slurs and trolling. You guilty.
Edit: lol. Lmao even.
