    On twitter, facebook, etc you follow people. Then the algorithm creates a bubble where you only get opinions and points of views you “like”.

    On reddit and lemmy you follow subjects. Then you get a wider range of opinions and points of views about subjects you like.

    One type creates celebrity “influencers” and polarization of opinions. The other doesn’t.

    I really, really hope it stays that way.
