Vs you from lemmy.ml who’s just here to spread lies.

I still see their comments all the time and they still upvote their propaganda on other instances.
Reddit also has a ton of money they can dedicate to countering disinformation compared to no budget for it in the Fediverse.
Some of them yes, absolutely.
They’re not just some losers sitting on their mom’s basements, they’re paid or programmed to spread disinformation and division.
I think the Fediverse will fail of regular people don’t push back against the propaganda. There’s no budget for countering misinformation.
I tag propaganda accounts all the time using Boost and Connect. Connect is FOSS, Boost was a Reddit app. You really do notice patterns.
Not only that, but it’s actually a much easier target because of the relatively sporadic moderation.
Compared to reddit, the Fediverse’s ability to moderate propaganda and advertising is puny and uncoordinated.
They’re paid/programmed to do what they do.
Enshittification also happens because of government propaganda, like the authoritarian propaganda Lemmy.ml spreads for the CCP.
Hard disagree. I’m already spending less time here because the Kremlin and CCP propaganda ruins the experience for me. I don’t even consider recommending it to people I know for the same reason.
Yeah… OP is blind to the massive Kremlin and CCP propaganda problem here in the Fediverse.
I won’t sit by and let authoritarians brainwash people.
Yeah, some news from another country, some authoritarian propaganda from a murderous government, some memes, it’s great
Turns out anon was pretty tardy after all…
Africa is poor purely because of outside influences
This is simplistic and naive to the point it feels like propaganda.
Thanks, I hadn’t heard of them. Thought this was interesting:
Now with increased focus on social media and LLMs I’d be surprised if it isn’t well into the billions.
