Yesterday it kinda hit me that the feed left a lot more “reddit-y” suddenly. More american politics for one.
There is a also aspecific thing that alerted me: Sudden appearance of this pattern plagueing reddit where a post about some bad muslim person escalates into edgy atheism which is also kinda racist and lowkey fascist in a very specific way.
I don’t have a lot of empiric evidence, just the vibe seems to have shifted.
100% of the users here are reddit refugees. I don’t know why anyone would assume the vibe of the platform to be any different. In many ways this place even manages to out-reddit reddit.
Its a very narrow dpgraphic of reddit users though, of course it’s going to be different, not necessarily better.
