Sure, there are always outliers and you can correct me if I’m wrong, but that’s just the overall impression I have.

(I wasn’t sure if !asklemmy@lemmy.world or this community would fit better for this kind of question, but I assume it fits here.)

    It’s a weakness in the sense that there are times this place turns into a straight-up echo chamber…

    But when there is actual debate going on, it tends to be a lot more civil than on other sites (most of the time)

      Yeah hasn’t been helpful for getting a sense for the minds of the masses but generally a lot more grounded than reddit

      Also though echo chambers are bad most of the time for most people, occasionally they help in challenging our own beliefs but only when engaged critically.
