I've pointed a couple folks to Lemmy.world and it's uhhh, pretty hard Left for them (as one girl, who volunteered for the Democrats said "I just got yelled at because I can't be Left wing unless I want to destroy capitalism? Which feels weird.") We're much farther Left than reddit which itself was definitely Left of centre...

I don't know if decentralized open source social media actually attracts many mainstreamers but assuming we want to grow the fediverse, I'd like to have somewhere I can point people to without feeling very nervous for them.

Thanks!

Actually that was my instinctual thought as well. Though, I might be primed as a result of some of the responses.

Sorry, it wasn't clear to me. Are you saying that your first association of the name Communick is with "Communism"?

Yep me too

I'm making a poll on Mastodon to see if it's a matter of sample bias.
