As the title suggests, now that more people are moving from Reddit, Twitter, Facebook and whatnot towards platforms on Fediverse and Bluesky, will that not create an even bigger split between political views? Most people who are not afraid of big tech and its influence will probably stay there.

We were already not always able to communicate and discuss certain topics as normal human beings, but now we probably won’t even see each other’s posts.

What do you think?

    Yeah, I think this is a thing.

    Generally, I think most people can come to an understanding through frank conversation (modulo racist whackos, etc). That rarely happens on social media, but each ideology having their own platform pushes the chance to zero.
