i think this is one of the things that's going to end up driving away most of the reddit users in the future.
most people came to the lemmyverse because of reddit's enshitification and are trying to turn lemmy into diet reddit by recreating the things that they liked about reddit; but lemmy was always intended to be political at its core and that core is deeply unpalatable to most of reddit & its refugees so they've mostly self sorted into their own instances and doing so has caused further issues for themselves, including rendering most of their communities inactive.
lemmy works for me because i used to be active in reddit's political subs before the enshitification and that taught me how to tolerate shit takes from misguided tankies and clueless liberals alike and the people who are too rigid in their views to learn will leave.
