When scrolling Lemmy (compared to reddit in the past), all I see is doom and gloom / news. I don’t see interesting conversations or comments to read.
Occasionally I’ll find something, and I’ve been contributing more, but there’s just so much doom that it fills my feed.
I’ve had to unsubscribe from many communities bc it’s just doom news reposts…
Is it just me?
Not just you at all. I read the Top 6-Hour usually, so I have been blocking communities and filtering out keywords left and right to try and reduce the constant deluge of doom. (Yes it is working)
It’s like, yeah I know we are totally hosed, I don’t need reminders every 10 milliseconds. All it leads to is learned helplessness and depression.
