[+] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works -17 points 2 weeks ago (4 children) "I don't know anything about it but Lemmy.ml bad" Is this... Really the bar? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] azalea_flower@lemmy.blahaj.zone 54 points 2 weeks ago I was more sympathising with the poster, but yeah that's about it. I'm not gonna engage mentally with anything from .ml since from experience it really isn't worth it. Taking a wander on .ml was pretty much the most confusing thing I've ever experienced when I first tried out lemmy, I mean their ukraine community is all you need to see, really is kind of another level of closed off from reality. Either you're out of the loop or you agree with them, but .ml being based around a (relatively) singular unquestioning belief system isn't healthy. permalink fedilink source parent [–] AmbitiousProcess@piefed.social 15 points 1 week ago (1 child) One of the first posts you'll see on the Lemmy.ml homepage is one celebrating Tass and RT, which are both Russian media outlets known for mixed and low factuality and for spreading blatant misinformation and state-sponsored propaganda for Russia. I'll also just say from anecdotal experience, 90% of the time I have an interaction with a lemmy.ml user, it's them doing apologia for Russia/China, or making insane claims that justify the genocide of the entire American nation (and thus its citizens) as a way of 'getting back' at America for its imperialism. I have seen less of that from .ml than I used to... but mostly just because the craziest ones just moved to lemmygrad. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 week ago For this context, actual alternatives would be the Jacobin (socialist), Tageszeitung (general left, German, worker cooperative), Freedom (anarchist news). permalink fedilink source parent [–] fyzzlefry 13 points 2 weeks ago They're trash over there, not worth the effort. permalink fedilink source parent [–] germanatlas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 2 weeks ago Honestly yes permalink fedilink source parent
