Hey, to anyone who uses both platforms, have y’all seen a huge uptick in Indian subreddits being recommended to y’all, irrespective of your nationality? It’s something I had heard a lot happening on reddit, but I wanted to confirm

    100% - between the slop, the propoganda, the 'native advertising, the ‘blocked by network security’ on old.reddit and the indians (I love indian culture btw, but I do not relate and am not ‘in’ on any of the memes anddddd it mostly appears to be indian teens) reddit has really lost me forever. On a slow day on lemmy I pop over and within like 5 minutes that tab is toast.

      SO IT ABSOLUTELY IS HAPPENING! I thought it was happening to me because I was an Indian, but no, every fucking person is seeing this shit. And no these Indian subs are weird man, they feel so much rage baity, or trying to karma farm. I have been active on reddit for 8 ish years, Indian subs weren’t like that. Some were, but it was mostly contained in pockets of reddit, it wasn’t the whole reddit experience.
