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?
News is negative because lawmakers are negative in the USA right now towards many communities. Not to mention war internationally and the climate crisis that is seeing the whole world affected in unprecedented ways. It’s doom in the news because we are living in doom. If we want to end the doom cycle we need to work as a species to pull ourselves out of it.
