I’ll also just say from anecdotal experience, 90% of the time I have an interaction with a lemmy.ml user, it’s them doing apologia for Russia/China, or making insane claims that justify the genocide of the entire American nation (and thus its citizens) as a way of ‘getting back’ at America for its imperialism.
I have seen less of that from .ml than I used to… but mostly just because the craziest ones just moved to lemmygrad.
For this context, actual alternatives would be the Jacobin (socialist), Tageszeitung (general left, German, worker cooperative), Freedom (anarchist news).
