Mastodon doesn’t have a recommendation engine really. If you’re getting lots of right wing lies and propaganda, then it’s because of who you chose to follow.
I would imagine that somebody who is complaining about seeing a lot of right-wing propaganda is not somebody who would follow right-wing personalities. So if they are seen right-wing propaganda, that’s a problem.
Perhaps it kind of just glitches out if you don’t follow anyone and just gives you anything.
Yeah but Mastodon is a right wing cess pool
Is this ironic? Certainly my Mastodon feed is radically left…
Mine’s geeky old tech, queer librarians, dogs, and cross-stitch.
I tried it when it first launched, has it gotten better?

Maybe the instance they chose has more right-wing folks than average, and so their local is skewed?
Mastodon is federated and has instances that have varying politics
