Unpopular opinion, but I don't really mind them, for now. They are not that imposing and I like to see the other viewpoint occasionaly, as I don't use other social networks. Makes me feel like I'm in less of a bubble here.
I'm okay with downvotes.
Homie I have been all over the internet and Lemmy has gotta be the worst lefty bubble/echo chamber I have ever seen.
Even in their own sub conservatives get downvoted into oblivion. If that's not indictive of a heavy bias left I don't know what is.
Im a left leaning moderate and I get downvoted constantly because I refuse to parrot the hivemind nonsense 24/7.
When I first got here I sorted everything by most commented and there was a thread someone made where they were asking if it was a good thing that the site was a massive lefty echo chamber. He got downvoted and anyone in the comments that had even a remotely moderate take was also downvoted.
I'm glad people like you still exist. I fear that the majority of the left just plugs their ears and starts screaming "LALALALA" the moment anyone challenges their view points even slightly. It's extremely concerning behavior.
Please point to the down voted "moderate" comments.
