When I joined Lemmy during the Reddit exodus it felt like a new breeze and very positive. It feels like this has changed, posts and comments are more negative. Lots of complaints, even positive news posts receive a lot of negative comments. I am always trying to see the positive in things. Just doesn’t feel fun anymore. Perhaps it’s just me though.

Also still mainly see technical posts, lots of Windows/MS bashing. I’d like to see more communities about non technical things. Perhaps I haven’t discovered them.

    Lemmy has been a lot more news heavy than Reddit was, and almost all the news is bad. It’s really been bringing me down- shitty politics, shitty politicians, shitty people doing shitty things, shitty companies, climate falling apart, food scarcity, enshitification of the internet, etc etc etc. it’s made my 10 year outlook very bleak, but I cant tell how much of that is because things are really bad right now and getting worse, and how much of it is just me being more exposed to the bad things than before.
