We live in the UK. She didn’t go any further than this. I got her to download TOR and use the “old.Reddit” trick to bypass this so it was only mildly infuriating for her in the end

      Honestly Lemmy gets mentally draining, constant political drama that is guaranteed to lean left, barely any non-partisan or neutral discussions happen here and god forbid anyone say anything that can be seen as conservative because a barrage of insults are certain to come your way.

      While I support the Lemmy project there are quite a few communities that I had subscribed to on Reddit that are missing here.

        Lemmy sucks it just sucks different, its the photo negative of truth social and anyone who thinks that this place isnt just a different echo chamber is deluded.

        I had to make an account that had no news and tried to limit anything that could regularly get too political for mental health

        No matter what happens, I always expect Lemmy to have the worse possible take.

        I also don’t like that politics seems to spill into every community

          Yes! This right bloody here, not everything needs to be political!
