Not to this extent in any way. It has been infinitely exacerbated with the dawn of social media. Those who seek to divide have the tools to do so. And we’ve seen since 2016 what it leads to when people are being continually lied to and they believe it because the lies fit into their own belief system. Trump is not a master at much, but he’s a master at that.


People just make up their own truth and say that you’re the one in need of “truth.” It’s a product of the “alternative facts” era that mainly Trump ushered in and others have picked up. If your facts do no support the preferred agenda, it’s just dismissed as “fake news.” Easy-peacy.


I personally think Jerboa is a the smoothest experience so far. But I’m planning to jump to Sync when it becomes available.


I’d also expect another big jump when clients like Sync and Boost get their apps for Lemmy online. That will attract an enormous amount of users from reddit.


The signup process is a barrier at the moment that will have to be addressed. Other than that, I don’t really see why it couldn’t be the new, improved reddit.


Can’t concentrate on anything but the 2% battery left. What kind of animal are you?
