This isn't a fair comparison because there's nothing stopping you from being on Lemmy, and the same evening watching some YouTube.
Most US voting systems are first-the-post which results in the spoiler effect. They would be wasting their vote if they don't vote one of the big two. (Other than areas which allow for proportional representation).
Don't vote for a third-party present, or governor or whatever. Y'all need some preferential voting to make that work.
