I’ve been enjoying the app and the community quite a bunch! However I do notice that the feed is starting to fill up with lots of negative sentiment.
The technology feed is 40% bad news, the news communities are filled with doom scroll stories and the localized communities are also complaining a lot. Some politics get added to the mix.
Lately I’ve noticed that I feel more negative about the world after a Lemmy visit.
Anyone else noticing that?
I’m surprised to see so many people say they haven’t seen this. Maybe the difference is that my feed is very vanilla with few blocked communities. That’s fair, though it still is something newcomers will be immediately confronted with.
To say that I “need” to see this negativity and am ignorant otherwise is a logical fallacy though. The opposite is true. We can be better.
