Basically my entire feed is like swiss cheese due to all the articles about Trump and Musk.
Does someone actually enjoy consuming this stuff all day every day? I can't possibly imagine Lemmy ever becoming popular among the normies if this is what they'd need to deal with.
I don't think it's about enjoying the content. I don't filter it because I like having a firm grasp on what is happening politically in the world. As annoying, frustrating, and anxiety inducing as it is, Trump and Musk are two figures that are currently doing everything they can to fuck up our planet and governments so that they can make a few bucks. Yes there is a lot of musk and Trump content, but sticking your head in the sand and hoping it doesn't effect you until it's over is probably not the best way to handle it. I haven't been on Reddit in years, but I recall it being the same situation there during Trump's first term, there was just a little more non-political content to help dilute it due to the larger user-base.
There was/is a lot more and that's one of the various reasons the different Lemmy/Mbin/Piefed sites haven't swayed people over yet. There's far more people around here replying to posts like this and news posts, as well as creating news/politics/"dry" posts or find-anywhere-fare like memes/shitposts than much else.
It's why recently I've tried posting more than media news links to a few of the different entertainment communities. Around here you really have to post/comment on what you want to see more than on the big corporate sites.
