Just as the title suggest. Is there anyway we can prevent Lemmy from being such a giant sphere of political annoyance just like Reddit? No matter where you go on reddit before the API changes and even now, someone has to bring politics into it. Even in post or subreddits where it’s not needed.

So once again, is there anyway we can stop that from happening and just allow the communities in Lemmy to be genuine?

    I think it’s up to the mods/admins to cultivate such a culture/community. If you restrict low-quality political posts, the people who that’s their life will go elsewhere. I know that’s what I’m going for on my instance. I’d rather have fewer people who actually talk about interesting things than constant <color> bad posts.
