Lemmy seems to have drifted to the fringes of the spectrum politically over time.
"Cake day: July 27th, 2023"
I never had a reddit account but joined lemmy when I heard the commotion and liked what I saw. Although I've never had a reddit account, I have lurked there, and you and many others here remind me of the typical reddit users who basically think the left begins and ends with the US democratic party and anything outside of that is "fringe".
Except I can look at your profile and see your first comments were four months ago no matter what you did on your profile in that specific instance to set your cake day.
My lemmy.ml account is meanwhile 3 years old without shenanigans.
It's not becoming. If anything, Lemmy became more milquetoast, Reddit liberal with the boom in .world accounts from the Reddit migration.
Not dissimilar to what happened with Reddit after the Digg migration where more "centrists" popped up and /r/conservative eventually grew, though Reddit was never leftist, just liberal with some right libertarian.
