Interesting insights into how controlled the narrative is in /r/canada on Reddit. One of the things that struck me was that there’s no self posts in /r/canada unlike many other countries’ and provinces’ subreddits. It would be nice if we differentiated ourselves here on Lemmy with more self posts
I think it’s a fine idea that requires a certain degree of community and camaraderie that I’m not sure exists in the Lemmyverse yet.
As a group, we’re good at sharing articles - often stuff that makes us mad (and there’s plenty of that to go around) - but less good at just…hanging out and shooting the shit.
I don’t know what the solution is aside from, “be the change you want to see.”
