I went to odysee once and saw the Babylon Bee advertised front page. Told me all I needed to know about the platform.

I'm so sorry to hear that happened to you. I reported a racist game I saw on Steam and I don't think anything ever came of it. You can turn off non-friends leaving comments on your profile, it's not a great solution but at least it'll prevent shitty comments on your profile in the future.

The times these users seem to operate in is suspicious

I'd rather miss that content and spare myself reading the drivel of useful idiots

I don't think so. The amount of doom on lemmy is insane, this isn't a very fun place. Comments using ableist slurs are upvoted. The meme communities are just a facade for more dooming. I swear this site is full of people that get off knowing they're making someone else feel bad.

I'm with you. I had reddit tuned to make me feel better. I saw cute animals and silly memes, cool niche hobbies, active small communities. Here it's almost entirely doom and gloom. Fighting and arguing. Unfunny, serious memes.

Makes me very glad I found a friendly discord community to be in.
