Define nonpolitical.
Even stuff like science facts or memes.
Posts that neither directly talk of countries, governments, ideologies nor directly imply anything about em
I think people are tired of that type of internet culture.
The culture of things that are not inherently political?
Memes in general... Are just a waste of my time imo.
why don't you/they just block meme communities then? downvoting memes because they are memes does not make any sense when they are posted to communities made for that reason
I usually do block communities eventually. I don't know I guess I forget that's an option until it annoys me enough.
It's increasingly hard to find things that are like that for everyone. It's an unfortunate trend that means I have to very aggressively curate my feeds to keep from being dragged into it.
I don’t see it happening here yet, but your comment now has me on alert. I escaped Reddit to get away from all that ad hominem and straw man indignation crappola. I was happy to see the Lemmy sign-up process was more extensive than just a captcha and email confirmation, but in the long run it won’t be enough. I think ultimately it’s the decentralization that will have the biggest protective effect.
if it ever gets the size of reddit, it will have some of these disadvantages, yeah. we will mostly stick to the more niche comms or instances like back on reddit.
