I can’t say I’ve been using Lemmy for long, but from the get-go it seems that the communities, memes, opinions that get upvoted seem to reflect left-wing ideas.

I’m certainly not complaining, it honestly feels like a breathe of fresh air compared to other social media sites that seem to shift further and further to the far right, though I am curious to hear why this might be the case? Does FOSS tend to attract more left-wing minded people, or does this just happen to be a broadly left-wing microcosm/bubble?

Hope you all have a great day.

    I 100% agree, and just wanted to say I love the word Tankjes. Dutch, by any chance?

      Hehehe… it should be tankies and indeed my dutch autocorrect did that… and it also works. So I’ll leave it.
