Dude you can dislike some of the things she posts, but this lady being one of the most prolific posters on lemmy is a good thing. She’s single-handedly sparking a shit-ton of engagement across a variety of communities.
I don’t think rage bait that divides progressives for the sake of content is good for the community 🤷♂️. Short term gains for long term losses.

Contributors could focus more on hobbies, even in the reposting niche news sense, but communities just repost politics and Linux news (another topic that becomes divisive) and this place becomes more and more an angry echo chamber.

I’m not sure I’m on board the “any engagement is good engagement” sentiment
