There are a few subreddits I check out from time to time because Lemmy doesn’t have the volume of users required to keep those niche conversations active.
Wow, what a pain! There’s so much hostility and byzantine rules. It’s just not worth it.

Depending on the community, a lot of the hostility could be from Russian/Chinese/N.Korean bots
We get a lot of the same shit here on Lemmy.
You know it’s bad when even a user named anticorp is complaining about it.
“Joebama made too many regulations, so you can’t properly calibrate your printer.” 🤣
I almost never see right-wingers in the wild these days. It seems that they’ve mostly retreated into their safe spaces. Or maybe I’ve just done a great job of blocking and avoiding most of the places they congregate.
Probably the latter. Right wingers don’t like spaces where there aren’t liberals to troll because that’s the point for them. They don’t wanna talk to other right wingers any more than you do because they’re mostly toxic people
Maybe some of them, but the r/conservative subreddit is huge, and they won’t let anyone except right wingers comment on almost everything. Only people with conservative flair can comment on like 95% of their posts.
The snowflaking and censorship in that subreddit is wild
Not as wild as their lack of self-awareness.
