    On the one hand I don’t like the amount of toxicity and political views. On the other hand it makes Lemmy unviable for AI training

      Do you feel that political toxicity is higher on lemmy than other platforms?

      I see some toxicity here but from my experience it’s miniscule compared with my experience on reddit and twitter.

        It depends on the topic. I’ve notice people here are a little more “off the rails” sometimes.

          Lemmy has a bit less censorship toward more deranged tendencies. I can state openly that I want to sacrifice a person on a Joshua because the tree is thirsty and I dont get banned. Fun shit, though mods do sometimes remove my violent comments which are bit more grounded.

            I’ve noticed some mods (mainly the ones that have been here since pre popularization) will remove any comment that isn’t in line with there tankie agenda. Most communities don’t have that problem and I have only scene it on the older Lemmy.ml ones.

              I did block the entirety of the .ml instances which probably helps. Figured id do it myself preemptively.

      True, once I filtered out all posts that mention political topics and blocked people that posted political posts, my feed became a ghost feed. Some days I might get multiple new posts but other times there might be nothing new for weeks.

        And that’s a bad thing? It seems healthy not to have content continually served to you.
