Unless you are already retired, and often even then, for you personally it has an extremely good chance of getting better, even if only slightly. More life experience often translates into ability to convert new things heading your way into less suckiness. Pro-Tip: lean into that for even better results - get married, or perhaps divorced, ditch Windows if you haven't already, etc. Don't let life pass you by - enjoy it!:-)
But the trajectory won't be as high as it would have been previously for someone a few years ago, and for all of us overall that trajectory will be objectively worse. Especially minorities bc fuck them all, apparently - says the Leopards Surely Won't Eat My Face Off party. Oh well - anyone who thinks life is supposed to be fair hasn't been paying attention (especially since the late 70s with the advent of corporations that can shirk legal duties that the rest of us cannot, like they can die and in so doing offer massive payouts to the board members at the expense of the customers, etc.). On the other hand, as the suffering increases comes the possibility of finally waking up and doing something meaningful - apes together strong. In the meantime, refer back to the first paragraph, for now.
I think Reddit is more exclusively USA-focused, with side-notes of UK and others, whereas Lemmy is more global. Therefore in Reddit that was more left-leaning than rightwardly so you mostly saw divisions between like young people vs. older ones - e.g. should a downvote be for something you don't personally like or something that does not add to the conversation.
Like if someone submitted a guide for how to fix a toilet (to a let's say home fixing sub) and it started to go viral then would you downvote it bc you don't want to see that in your r/popular feed, or upvote or leave it alone bc it at least matches what it set out to be? Which really reflected the slide of the platform away from its roots as a forum board and into true "social media", where interactions are monetized and hence the more the better, never mind that more downvotes leads to less people willing to submit actual content.
Although that's over now, as the social media aspect won, so it's all just that now, and therefore for most of us here, not worth visiting any longer. i.e. if I left the Fediverse, I still would not return there.
But here, I think it's your block list, because I see a HUGE diversity of opinions. e.g. there are (a few) right-wing conservatives who actively support genocide so long as it is their own side doing it, and there are extremist left-wing tankies who also actively support genocide so long as it is their own side doing it, and too there are blue maga who soft-core support the doing of genocide so long as it is their side that needs to win, plus there are a few who even don't support genocide, imagine that. :-P
I see a lot less of those extremes though after blocking hexbear.net, lemmygrad.ml, and finally I added Lemmy.ml. Also, while places such as conservative@lemm.ee exist and are active, they are tiny.
