OP blames Google for the crap the user installs. Lemmy attitude is always a good shield for large companies because it makes any complaint seem absurd by association.
Yeah it’s a very very one-sided community, especially in regards to companies and governments and so on. And it’s not like there’s not a lot to complain about, but people here freely apply the same broad strokes they complain about on reddit et al. And that in turn shields problematic stuff from criticism because all criticism is so absurd and overdone.
There’s just little nuance in online discussions in general, and less so here. Partially of course becuase of how small Lemmy is.

It’s sad that I was hoping for Lemmy to be a place to have a better vetting of comments by votes but its frankly worse than Reddit.
Its hive mind is sadly becoming less diverse and just up votes “LOL THIS THING BAD” with no sourcing or anything.
I’ve found myself sadly going back to Reddit more because the comments are just of higher quality and diversity of opinions.
