I’ve always assumed it was due to the size of Reddit. I don’t care about anime at all but because lots of other people do it reaches the front page. This is why I became very liberal with the block button to tailor the feed.

I love the knob but hate that in 2021 they ‘upgraded’ the auto start to being in an app.

Looks like it.

Yeah, before I looked up the translation I figured it was “whore’s son” which is close enough.

Still haven’t seen a “join lemmy” but gotta love “Digg 4 Lyfe”

Edit: It actually says DGG 4 LYFE.

You missed the best part, in the German Flag, they’ve written “u/spez ist ein Hurensohn!”

Translation: u/spez is a son of a whore/bitch (Google says bitch, commenters are saying whore.)

Similarly, the felt version of this. Nice for if you need to move something, ie furniture (we have wood floors).

Yes, but I think it’s as @Candelestine@lemmy.world says. As any form of social media grows past a certain point, the more everything becomes ‘averaged out’ to the lowest common denominator. IE the things that get upvoted the most end up being only things with mass appeal across the breadth of the user base. From past experience we know this is by and large rage-bait.

Of course this can be mitigated to an extent by carefully curating what you’re blocking and subscribed to. Furthermore defederating can effect this but I’m not yet knowledgeable enough to guess how effective.
