idk why the downvotes. you're right.
Because Lemmy is equally an echo chamber, and historically people do not like being reminded of inconvenient truths.
Lemmy is an echo chamber you make yourself tho. There are no algorithms that push certain content to you. Obviously, if you only lurk on shit like hexbear, my condolences, but I don't feel like Lemmy is an echo chamber, at least much less than reddit was.
An echo chamber is an echo chamber. Whether natural or artificial. Lemmy is extremely one sided. Dissenting opinions are not tolerated nor welcome (from a political standpoint). Perhaps less so than reddit as Lemmy user base is much smaller.
