Programming.dev is nice a community and overall i like the content I get when i stay on my local instance.
The moment i am switching to “all” everything becomes extremely left leaning and too politicised for my taste.
Is there a way to block all the communist/anarchist/anti-capitalist stuff, or this is Lemmy in general?
Just don’t switch to “all”, that’s it. Pretty much any platform that has more than 1.5 users and allows any political discussions is doomed to be filled with extreme politics
I think that “all” of anything is going to be a dumpster fire no matter what your standards are. Sturgeon said that 90% of everything is crud. What he didn’t say was that everyone has their own opinion on which 10% is worth anything.
Or you could put on your hip waders and follow Kipling into the waters looking for the 20% that makes it worthwhile to wade through the other 80%.
Right now, if you can’t handle having to block communities you don’t like, then ALL isn’t the place for you.
Lemmyverse.net is a great directory to find content.
Anti-capitalism was already a big thing on Reddit but being so pro Russia/ China seems to be a Lemmy thing. I wouldn’t call the latter left but rather morons.
What communities/instances are you dominating your /c/all? Asking because I was hoping for more leftist discussion and I’m not really seeing it outside of lemmygrad.
Edit: I’m mostly following programming.dev and lemmyrs.org, so I’m not really looking too hard. And I appreciate beehaw, but it feels more center left than left.
