Wasn't all that active on Reddit before I got banned for "security reasons" (which I still to this day have no idea what they mean by that), but it was a mixed bag on Reddit. Which makes sense, there is a LOT of users on Reddit after all. On Lemmy? It seems like everyone is one of two factions here: Liberals/Progressives/Social Democrats or the Tankies, and which one you encounter when posting or replying is seemingly random to me. It's unfortunately emblematic of the current day left though where both sides spend more time infighting than actually opposing the right. Though tbf, the right has gone off the deep end so hard that there's nothing of substance to engage with anymore from their side. Anyway, I could be entirely wrong though and it isn't just two waring factions here. I imagine if Lemmy was as big as Reddit though that it would be a mixed bag of ideologies since there would be a lot of normies as well
