I visit .ml and while I do occasionally get cross threaded with them they are, overall, not terrible. Yes some of the people associated with their instance can be over the top but by and large they are just people with a different viewpoint.
I tried to do the same with hexbear but ultimately couldn't, which may be my problem more than theirs.
We are, but at the same time having parallel communities helps with that
Does it though? Seems to me that we just end up with two echo chamber communities where there's no cross pollination of ideas and no challenges to our viewpoints. It's good that people still have a place to interact but self segregation along ideological lines isn't healthy for anyone over the long term.
As an example it's why I'm still subscribed to communities over on .ml. They challenge my base reality and expose me to viewpoints that I wouldn't consider on my own.

This is why I started "testing" Linux Mint on all my personal machines 6 months ago.
With that said the training data that Copilot Vision could generate may begin a sea change in both AI and the PC industry.
It’s really amazing how the GOP members of Congress have willingly given up their power.
I have to chime in on this one. The President didn't just suddenly get all this authority; both mainstream parties started handing it over willingly decades ago.
The Executive Branch of our Government, led by the President, is in control of far too many things.
Yeah kinda. We've gone through everything that the Millennials have plus some.
How so? I'm having to go out of my way to find and engage with people who have alternate viewpoints & lifestyles because they tend to get pushed out of / banned from "regular" communities. That's the exact problem being discussed here.
In the broader context of the meme itself people start thinking they are in the majority because they are participating in online communities that have been carefully curated over time to silence anyone who disagrees.
