  • People have a wide variety of opinions and interests that are not represented well on a two dimensional left right spectrum.

    Lemmy has a fair few people who will fight you over their own perceived interests.

    Because Lemmy is so small it’s common for the same people to argue over their interests in every community. In the morning I catch up on the all feed in 20ish minutes (I block politics and memes).
