I joined Lemmy a few days ago and have been reading around. 90%+ of the content I see, even on non-politics related communities, is political in some way. I have no interest in that, so it’s tiring, especially when it’s inserted in the comments of completely unrelated posts.
It really depends on the instance. The big ones definitely have a lot of politics. More topic-focused instances tend to have less of that.
Does that matter if they’re all federated? Or do you propose to block instances?
