Reddit is more diverse. The same kind of cynicism exists there too but it’s dilluted by all the other content so it’s easier to ignore. Here that is less the case as majority of the content is news articles - granted that I haven’t been to reddit for over a year so I don’t know what it’s like today.
It depends how you use these platforms. On reddit, I go to a few somewhat niche subs (via a direct bookmark link) so I don’t see any content outside of those specific niches.
On lemmy, I use this account for news/global politics, but I also have an alt where I only access content from subscribed communities and there is minimal politics.
Specially for those of us who aren’t from the USA, there’s basically no content other than their news, a couple different hobby communities and the sellers from nsfw.

I also hope it stays not monitored, though I would happily pay $1/month to support running costs.
Agreed. This is the most cynical corner of the internet I’ve ever been to, yet here I’m.
