Mastodon doesn’t have a recommendation engine really. If you’re getting lots of right wing lies and propaganda, then it’s because of who you chose to follow.
I would imagine that somebody who is complaining about seeing a lot of right-wing propaganda is not somebody who would follow right-wing personalities. So if they are seen right-wing propaganda, that’s a problem.
Perhaps it kind of just glitches out if you don’t follow anyone and just gives you anything.
Is this ironic? Certainly my Mastodon feed is radically left…
Mine’s geeky old tech, queer librarians, dogs, and cross-stitch.
I tried it when it first launched, has it gotten better?

Maybe the instance they chose has more right-wing folks than average, and so their local is skewed?
