It seems like any platform that features link aggregation is soon overrun by bots and self-promoters trying to drive traffic, and pages and pages of link posts versus pages and pages of people talking.
Are there any lemmy instances or other defederated networks that focus on Q&A, niche communities, and people conversing, instead?
Do we have users from exploding heads? Yes, we do. we also have users from NOSTR who were invited and a few from reddit.
I’m not sure why you are making assumptions about our instances when you’re not even an admin there or involved in any way, shape, or from.
HC is not exploding-heads number 2, or meant to be a eh replacement. HC was created for the purpose of having fun, hanging out, fucking around and posting content you make, without having to deal with lemmy drama.
We are not, eh we do not plan to be, or to federate,ever So, I am sorry if this disappoints you.
We welcome both left and right, leaning people. Right now, we just so happen to have more right and center ppl.
Leftists and centrists are welcomed to join. Our core value is not giving a shit which side you’re on. Although we allow political stuff from both sides, HC was not, and is not a political movement.
I’m sure you not interested along with many others and that’s fine.
I will address anyone making this assumption bc its incorrect.
