I like it in theory, but the content posted here seems even more politically biased than on Reddit, or at least I've found it difficult to find a good sample from different sides, and neutral content is pretty much not happening. Even in tech, most of it seems to be bashing on Musk or some other billionaire.

I just want to know what's happening in the world and I want to discuss it. Why does everything need to be so slanted? I really miss /r/neutralnews on Reddit because the mods at least enforced the rule that facts must be cited, which helped quite a bit on nonsense posts.

I like the format, I just don't think we have the right moderation team and/or userbase to get exactly what I'm looking for. But I'm unwilling to go back to Reddit out of stubbornness, so I settle for lemmy.

Why does everything need to be so slanted?

in defense of some of the content, people like musk are inherently slanted in countering positions, so it's kind of hard to write neutral opinion articles on the man who literally bought one of the largest social medias globally, and turned it into a republican disinformation machine for his personal gain.

factual, and fact based reporting is still good though.
