I totally agree with the title's sentiment. I don't mind some free open source rough edges. Lemmy functions great. There's also a good deal of what looks like genuine interaction. However, I would like to point out that I think there's a LOT of corporate shills pushing agendas. Some notable ones might be pharmaceutical propaganda and corporate banking with cashless solutions.

I've even seen someone trying to shill the "Barbie" movie here, it's like, we get that it is a really good movie and the lead actress gave an Oscar worthy performance of a lifetime and is also like, really hot and really funny and all, but why would they want to shill this movie on this obscure technology forum, of all places?

So yeah, I've heard it was a good movie too. Like, totally an Oscar worthy performance for sure! ;)
