Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)
Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

I think Lemmy has a lot of Far Left people on the site. In this instance, I'm referring to people who are staunchly against capitalism and often in favor of communism, even if they don't support CCP or Russia. I've also noted a higher-than-normal instances of anarchists here.
As for specifically pro-China shills, I've only seen one, but they were very active in c/worldnews.
If Lemmy grows in popularity, I expect we'll see the community shift more towards center, for better and/or worse.
Which is weird, because far left communists are the absolute last people I would expect to support Russia or China.
Not from what I've seen, at least with respect to China. Plenty of them seem to minimize the deplorable actions of the CCP while extolling it's economic policies. They frequently hold China up as a shining example a successful communist state and seem more interested in the fact that it challenges the West and capitalism than they are concerned about it's numerous human rights violations and total disregard for the sovereignty of its neighbors.
I think the only people supposing the CCP these days are actual Chinese people. A distaste for China seems to be the sole unifying topic in the west.
