DandomRude@lemmy.world to Ask Lemmy@lemmy.worldEnglish · 4 days ago

Why is Lemmy so US-centric? The largest instances are in Europe, aren't they? So why does it have to be US news trolling as if it were Reddit?

      Not in my experience. If you don’t want to see politics there is a robust blocking system on Connect (and other apps I’m sure) that you can use.

        This would be less of a problem if Lemmy moderators actually gave a fuck anout the quality of their communities.
