I use a few social media platforms at the same time. I'm used to seeing the same things on each platform. That's how the internet has been for years - you read the same things on the same five sites.

To be fully transparent, Lemmy isn't at the top. I don't post much and I lurk. Sometimes I post a comment here and there.

But this past week, I'm seeing more and more interesting content in the "Everything" section of Lemmy that I didn't see in my other social media feeds. New communities and more interesting convos.

Uncertain if the fediverse has gotten a wave of new posters, some algorithm has changed, or every other social media company is sucking more and more thanks to America Team Police...

Just wanted to share my extremely limited anecdotal non-fact checked viewpoint.

politics, during the first few months of OCT 7 ISRAEL invasion of gaza, it was pretty obvious it was designed to hurt the campaign of biden, and people on "r/pics" was trying to get people to not vote for biden, it was definitely propaganda, i was reporting them left and right.(thats where i recieved my first worldnews ban) and i was able to avoid getting banned with a different acct by avoiding that sub, up until reddit decided to purge wholesale last year.

Yeah, people seeing pictures of children being killed in a genocide and reacting badly is obviously just a conspiracy!
