Cake day: July 15th, 2026

Hi all. Lemmy tends to be rather lefty, so I am not afraid to say that my politics lands on the left as far as US politics goes. So my uncertainty isn’t between left and right, but where I fall on the left.

Since around 2017 I have considered myself a liberal of some form. But I have to confess I did not start really doing a deep dive into politics until this current administration. And I have felt conflicted. I try to listen to different commentators. I’ve listened to Destiny, Hasan, Vaush, and various other people. All as reconnaisance - so to speak - and none of them because I necessarily subscribe to with any real confidence. I’m just trying to hear different perspectives.

If someone mentions something about some policy that was passed some time ago, or mention some political figure I’m not sure I’ve heard of, I go look in to it.

I thought this would help me settle on a solid political stance, but I think it has just caused me more confusion and uncertainty. How do you all do it?

  • I messed around with it some more.

    I’m not sure what I was missing but everything seems to be showing as it should on desktop. Sorry about that…

    I do want to ask though: I can use everything just like I am going through FediNSFW. Aside from a different aesthetic, what is the difference between accessing everything I can right now on lemmy.zip and using another lemmy (instance? Server?)

I am currently using Lemmy.zip through the app voyager.

I can also see content from other places like hexbear and fedinsfw.

If I login to lemmy.zip on a desktop I can use my voyager credentials. But I am only able to view lemmy.world and nothing else here.

If I login to fedinsfw on desktop I can seemingly access a multitude of places such as I can on voyager, including lemmy.zip.

I’m sorry if this is such a dumb thing to get confused about. I’ve heard explanation for what all this is, but I’m still just not quite sure I understand.
