The Lemmy developers are very anti-capitalist and this is one of the first instances, the one that they are most liked to. Like attracted like, leading to a lot of users being anti-capitalist.
Other instances have different internal cultures due to how and why they were formed.
Are there other less anti-capitalist instances you can recommend? I am so tired of the constant , "oh, it's because capitalism!" circlejerk.
Maybe start a commuist revolution, then no one woud need to talk about capitalism?
A lot of the other ones are less anti-capitalist. The problem here is that no other instance seems to want to compete for AskLemmy since the community got built early here.
Yeah, I'd like to be pointed to one too. I don't mind talking to anti-capitalists, but the circkle-jerking is too much.
