    Problem is that it is aimed at socially awkward and inept individuals who do not like to engage with one another. I try to start conversations but the only reactions I get are from pissy communists

      So true on the last bit there. Communists, the most infuriatingly annoying and delusional people on the internet have completely infested this website.

      I’m guessing some reddit commie-holes like genzedong decided to migrate here since Lemmy is still small and they could dominate it and rule it since there are more than enough people who see through their bullshit on reddit.

        i mean, the developers are communists (hence why they went with the .ml TLD on their instance), so i think it is a trend that predates any significant reddit migration. also federated social media has kind of always been full of communists and anarchists. i reckon it kind of goes hand in hand with the distrust of the big corpo sites.

        anyways, go touch grass, please.

          I dont want either. Communists always act like they have the high ground but they are just infantile economic idealists with no real plan of action, while ignoring past communist systems or proclaiming “no, that wasn’t true communism”.
