So many people were bootlicking Andy Yen in the Reddit thread. Where the commenters were attacking the poster for suggesting that he should resign from the ceo position for praising Donald Trump and then doubling down on the original statement using the official proton account.

The majority of reddit content is bots, shills, and astroturfing

It's also still very progressive. If reddit is considered conservative to you, you may be very far left.

most people on lemmy are delusional

[-] olafurp@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

It used to be center left but not anymore

[-] Mwa@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago

And there is some people who still use it (30%?).

Reddit is a shell now, and they're desperately filling it with AI.

Old search results, mostly.

It's a garbage site full of garbage people. Except for the people that I like on Reddit.

[-] NineMileTower@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Garbage people? Dude, you're hateful.

[-] charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works 6 points 9 months ago

I guess you are really in tune with jokes. I thought that was obvious to most everybody

[-] NineMileTower@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

My joke missed. I meant it as if you were upset with your local garbage men. I see now that it wasn't clear and it feels bad, man. I WAS drunk when posting this though.

I don't remember writing anything and I think I passed out before the last few minutes of the game.

[-] NineMileTower@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Lions fan here. I feel you, bro.

[-] charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

Back at you. These playoff losses make me more depressed than usual for like a week

[-] insomniacalmond 6 points 9 months ago

There are also several posts on whether or not Elon Musk did the Nazi salute (many of which are denying it) and being against women.

[-] 200ok@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

All of this is gibberish to me, and yet it makes perfect sense.

[-] timestatic@feddit.org 2 points 9 months ago

When I check the subreddits from my country its mostly left content. I really don't have that feeling although I think its not as politically onesided as it is here

[-] gimmelemmy@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

AND deranged. I posted a comment about the blow back that seniors are going to feel from the disruption among staffing in the caregiving field, and got banned from a sub, along with comments that I was "calling for elder abuse". It was fun while it lasted, but I am DONE looking forward to watching Lemmy explode
