My personal impression is that Russian propaganda targets internal audience mostly, so its not fair to compare it to the Ukranians one.

You'd be surprised. While most people here in Romania are anti-Russia, some believe their propaganda that there's no war in Ukraine. They literally think that all the videos from Ukraine are fake.
It's sort of like the Cambridge Analytica thing. We live in bubbles, and we're unaware that in some bubbles the Russians are completely winning the propaganda war.
The overzealous covid response further fragmented society and led to further distrust of the media. This created a huge opportunity for Russia.
For now, it's not significant enough to matter, but it might come to bite us in the ass.
