The Reddit populace is pretty leftie. Except for the occasional brave soul commenting here and there, you have to search out certain subreddits to hear conservative views.
Not that your app has anything to do with that, of course.
I’d say it is (was? It’s been ~a year and a half since I used it consistently but I’m guessing it hasn’t changed too much since then) moderately left by US standards but definitely not progressive left - you don’t have to go very far to find thinly-veiled sexism/racism/homophobia, though that might just be because a large portion of the people there are terminally online in a bad way. That being said, there are definitely also communities ranging from conservative to hardcore conservative as well but I actively tried to avoid those so I didn’t really see them in my feeds. The same is true with progressive communities but they tended to drift away from being actually progressive once they got to a certain size.

To a “conservative” reality itself must seem extremely left-wing. It’s just their warped perspective.
