The reason is simple. Misinformation sticks with conservatives more than liberals. With liberals, someone posts evidence that the story isn’t true and the whole thing fizzles out. If someone tries posting counter evidence in a conservative forum, they get banned.
There’s no money in trying to push misinformation to liberals.
How many of them don’t know about Lemmy yet and would switch in a second if they found out?
There is a way to get genuine help from a Linux forum.

One would see it as a wall, one would see it as a tree trunk, one would see it as a snake, one would see it as a rope, one would see it as a spear.

“Your business decision is making people HATE you”
This situation won’t kill reddit, but it is quite capable of killing reddit’s supremacy.
Go ahead and do it and show the world what a dumpster fire you are.
many would have volunteered to help the moderation scale.
Yeah, but that’s going to take time. Lemmy is in its infancy and these things need to be established at the outset.
Yes, but admins want to maintain a certain kind of atmosphere in their instance. It can’t be completely up to the users.
Someone needs to make a regularly updated map of which instances are federated with which other instances.
Edit: Ok, apparently there’s one here but there’s over 600 instances and trying to show the connections between all of them destroys your browser.
That’s not always a good thing. Some posts need to be downvoted.
Can the creator of a community move their community, along with all the posts and comments, to another instance?
I wonder if it might be a good idea to let people link their Lemmy account with whatever platform they’re donating through, so they get a little badge on their posts and comments showing that they’re a contributor.
Coffee tastes like absolute shit. I’ve gagged every time I’ve tasted it.
