    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.

        Maybe the instance they chose has more right-wing folks than average, and so their local is skewed?
