As I’ve used Lemmy, I’ve discovered just how politically charged it can be. This is likely just due to the nature of the software and the types of people that tend to care about it, but I’d like to avoid associating with radicals, both left and right. As such, I want to make a new account on a new general-purpose instance. I can speak German, so I was thinking feddit.org or lemmy.at, but I know nothing about them. What do you suggest?

    The idea of “political neutrality” is naive or bad faith.

    What you want is a right-wing sub. They pride themselves on being centrist, reasonable, and uncontroversial. You’re going to get lots of radical ideology, but don’t take it seriously bro, it’s just a joke.

    Left subs may seem obnoxious with their politics, but that’s just because we’re trying to persuade you with argument instead of tricking you with flattery.

    Maybe Facebook, since they can’t federate with Lemmy instances. But avoid tiktok because it’ll learn what you like and show you political stuff anyway.

      Threads is actually quite fun. But I feel, it’s a bit messy
