We live in the UK. She didn’t go any further than this. I got her to download TOR and use the “old.Reddit” trick to bypass this so it was only mildly infuriating for her in the end

      To be fair it’s about the new UK nanny dictatorship law.

      In theory lemmy should do the same and the UK government could sue and block access of any lemmy instance not following their ludicrous laws.

      Honestly Lemmy gets mentally draining, constant political drama that is guaranteed to lean left, barely any non-partisan or neutral discussions happen here and god forbid anyone say anything that can be seen as conservative because a barrage of insults are certain to come your way.

      While I support the Lemmy project there are quite a few communities that I had subscribed to on Reddit that are missing here.

        something tells me you whining about not having enough conservative propaganda on a site, that wants nothing to do with it, go back to reddit.

          My “whining” is because of people like /u/dickalan@lemmy.world. This is what makes Lemmy mentally draining, they’re hellbent on their political ideology and if you don’t conform you get ousted, fed to the fishes so to speak.

        Yeah, right propaganda is blatant, untruth, and whipping men who feel insignificant into a frenzy, fuck off you weirdo, go find your safe space backthere on Reddit dip shit. You have the hallmark of a person that cannot control what information gets into their brain, you know, keyword blocks, or a any thing you can to save yourself the mental anguish you clearly feel on a daily basis that you subject yourself to, I feel no sympathy for people that Can’t control what triggers them, again fuck you in the face, I don’t care if I’m gonna get dinged here on Lemmy . I’ve said what I have to say.

        Lemmy sucks it just sucks different, its the photo negative of truth social and anyone who thinks that this place isnt just a different echo chamber is deluded.

        I had to make an account that had no news and tried to limit anything that could regularly get too political for mental health

          I have a good word filter list that seems to do the trick. Apart from when the titles are “things am I right?” And the description is “this ^”, no word filter will work on that. Wish there was a politics tag.

        No matter what happens, I always expect Lemmy to have the worse possible take.

        I also don’t like that politics seems to spill into every community

          It’s weird that you complain about what you subject yourself to, that’s a sin according to the satanic Bible

              By politics they mean anything that’s left-wing. Right-wing stuff like causal racism isn’t seen as political since it’s so normalized in America.

              Not really, need more popular hobby communities as they are often places that politics don’t impact
