American politics seeping into every damn thing. And to top it off, with a clear bias in one direction. I resent having the feeling like there's an astro-turfing effort going on, even when I agree with whatever stance is being pushed. Reddit is really tainted with that sort of thing.

Hopefully it doesn't take hold here, or at least stays contained so I can decline subbing to magazines that would pertain. I'd rather not have to swim in the "political party A is evil and political party B is angelic" muck in unrelated magazines.

Nobody gives a shit about words anymore.

Subbed and looking forward to an answer with the math explained.

I spend some time on Lemmy, obviously, but a lot less than I did on Reddit. It's been great! I've been getting outdoors a lot more with daily walks and weekly hikes. I published a short children's book a few months ago, and now I'm about 15,000 words into the first draft of an adult scifi novel. I didn't appreciate how much time I was pissing away. Thanks, u/spez!

It gets harder and harder to tell what the truth is in this age of disinformation and astro-turfing. It seems like there's a pretty clear motive for certain interested parties to take the wind out of the sails, so keep your bullshit detector turned on for now.

Edit: Now that I think about it, this probably applies in both directions.

That looks pretty good. I've been enjoying Inoreader for a little while, but I might have to take TOR around the block.
