As usual, I have to scroll down more than a page to get past all the generic "Google bad" comments to see any discussion of the topic at hand. Never change, Lemmy.

What you're looking for is effective moderation. It would be nice wouldn't it.

If you're looking for an echochamber that is. Just accept that people can have different opinions and views. Besides if you're a technical person you would know the amount of bullshit and mistrust there is.

Not wanting low effort comments is not an echo chamber. I am perfectly fine with dissenting opinions a lot of the comments on here aren't at the level of opinions that just knee jerk reactionary comments

Why are you complaining about low effort comments after leaving 2 of them? Practice what you preach
