I’m uninterested in dividing the group and speaking to an echo chamber. The only place it matters are the places people don’t automatically agree with you, and me with them.
You are in an echo-chamber. Lemmy.world intentionally defederates from instances with significant ideological differences, you may wish to pick something like Lemm.ee instead.
Lemmy.world in particular attracts people interested in a generalist instance, itself an attraction of a specific type.
The point of federation is curation of experience. You can pick a niche instance with a broad federation list so that you can have like-minded discussions in local and a broad exposure when sorting by all.
Then start your own instance, or join one that aligns with your values instead of a generalist instance.
The issue with Reddit is systemic and foundational, but Lemmy gives users the tools they need to fix their problems.

I switched from world to ee and enjoy interacting with ml grad and hexbear users ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Lemm.ee fulfills the “show me everything except CSAM” role much better than Lemmy.world, which is just Reddit 2, IMO.
Maybe I’ll do this. If even just to argue with people who are more extremist who will handle my opinions even poorer. Lol.
Go for it. Lemm.ee’s local feed is… interesting… but the All feed contains far more than Lemmy.world does.
Lemmy.ml is federated with more instances than Lemmy.world as well, but is also focused on FOSS and Privacy, so the local feed is more curated.
