It’s why I had to give up Reddit entirely.
Impossible to follow any topic without it devolving into political flame wars.

I have stopped visiting Reddit after they dropped support for old.reddit.com. I use lemmy.world now. I did notice an increase in cat posts on Reddit before I quit
That was the final straw for me as well. Forcing you to log in to see old.reddit.com + forcing you into the app when viewing on mobile + the general toxicity just made it no longer worth it to use Reddit.

The cat bongos thing linked above has a pinned announcement about how if you have the wrong politics, you're not allowed to enjoy cat bongos. lmao
Maybe it's just a natural process? The Facebook algorithm figured out 10+ years ago the best way to get clicks was to piss people off.

But have you considered how that is Donald Trump/Joe Biden's fault?
/s in case it isn't obvious.
