MODERATORS
The news communities on lemmy. It's still the news, but sometimes i appreciate the comments.
Comments is where the real work gets done. That's how reddit used to work before it turned into bot networks spinning narratives for interested parties etc
I think a lot of the meme content here is bots as well.
But since most users don't post anything, it's better than the alternative.
We do have bots are they are labeled and I haven't seen bot nets driving narrative... Yet.
Also engagement quality is way better. Even when disagree with comments, they feel like real people with their own opinions.
Eh. Sort of. It's still a big echo chamber with lots of feel good statements that amount to not much
