I wonder if all the bot activity on reddit makes it look so busy that people are confused when they come somewhere with far fewer bots around?

I notice significantly more positive interaction with (at least what I believe to be) real humans here than I did on reddit in my last couple of years there.

Probably slightly controversial but I'm actually missing getting into arguments with strangers. I feel like I need some conflict in my life.

Go to hexbear[.]net or lemmygrad[.[ml comms then ;)

Thank you. Just took a breif look at Hexbear. I wasn't able to see much but from one comment I was able to see, they seem like colourful characters. Lemmygrad are obviously tankies. Don't know what I was expecting from the name.

hexbear has a lot of tankies, but it has a larger variety of leftists than grad.

The name doesn't give away much.

Thank you for the explanation. Apparently, they defederated from the instance I'm using because of transphobia. Is it worth changing instance to see their content? (And perhaps I should to begin with?) I wasn't aware of transphobia when I joined it originally.

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

eh, I don't think you're missing much from hexbear.

[–] SpaceShort@feddit.uk 2 points 2 months ago

Ok. Thank you for clarifying. I had initially considered joining them because the description said "leftist meme space" which is similar to a subreddit I frequented but I gave up when the form basically asked me if I was a vegan.

What's your most controversial opinion?

[–] SpaceShort@feddit.uk 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That if Trump annexes Canada, European countries should provide weapons and ammunition to Canadian guerrilla groups. Tends to scare people IRL. Didn't get into an argument on Reddit over it. They just report me.

[–] GiveOver@feddit.uk 3 points 2 months ago

Sorry I think I'd agree. No argument for us today :(

On Reddit though, mostly what they offer is arguments with robots? 🤖😜
