Since a lot of folks sort by “all” on Lemmy, popular posts get overwhelmed by people who don’t daily drive operating systems like iOS or MacOS.

I like outside perspectives and all, but when the majority of the “community” discussion is coming from people who aren’t even using these products, it is pretty hard to have informed conversations.

Moreover, I feel like this type of engagement creates a lot of threads that get pretty combative and catty. They’re often started by people who are trying to argue and convince iOS / MacOS users that they’ve picked the wrong side of the fence.

Anyone else feel me on this? I imagine this is a problem for other communities on Lemmy as well.

    That is such a weird behaviour, and I see it in a lot of places. Especially in gameing where you have people go " I haven’t touched this game serie sense the second game in the 90’s, but this new thing in the latest game sucks. Just like the entire series has doen sense the third game was released " and this is even in a community for the LATEST game not the entire series.

    It is so common to see and it is so weird.

      I feel like you’re describing something that I regularly see as a fan of some of the Assassin’s Creed games. I’m a patient gamer and am just now getting to the newer ones having finished Black Flag recently. For every game so far, I’ve seen what you’re describing.
