Too much politics. During the election on Reddit, everything was either ecstatic “Trump good!” or smug “Orange man bad!” posts with no actual content. My list of blocked subreddits ballooned, and that helped. Maybe I’ll have to do that here.
I second that. It's overwhelming.
I hope you're wrong cause of the reasons why I left reddit and ended up at Lemmy was for the politics. YouTube is too right-wing biased and Imgur has too many memes. Give me those juicy Trump stories. Can't wait for the day when I see the "Trump Sentenced to 20 Years" post pop up on the front page here.
While he's eating McDonald's and watching TV in his "cell"?
Even in the political discussion communities, there wasn't much actual content. Just a bunch of jokes, memes and [deleted]. Even if politics appealed to you, Reddit wasn't the best place for it.
