Yes. No one questions my points of view. I can isolate myself in an echo chamber and start a circle jerk with like-minded people. /s
On Lemmy, suddenly it's like a cold war has started. Iron curtains are erected everywhere.
Community moderators are blocking people seemingly randomly for trifles.
Moderators without any restrictions (restrictions they previously had on Reddit) are attempting social engineering and this will only strengthen threads and other corporate competitors.
Nobody wants to hear some dumb bullshit argued with them. It does not change minds like you think it does. It does not result in productive conversation of opposing views. It does not create a structured debate. It just ends up two people arguing with each other without either changing their mind. It's literally useless. If you think that's desirable and want to call it an echo chamber to not want to pointlessly argue, then don't be surprised when people don't want to associate with you.
