Hey, I’ve been looking at what I’m subscribed to on Lemmy and it really grim, and not really what I want from a social media. I’m into tech, but the tech subs talk about evil things companies do, a lot of linux meme and programmer humor, and it’s all cool and all, piracy talking about how it’s bad what certain company do. And when you go in global it’s “Amercan Politics” “Elon Musk Bad” “Stealing data”, “our world ending”

Recently my brother and I where bored, and I went to show him we moved to lemmy, and said we had memes and all the stuff here. And looking at top memes, it was “complaining about big tech”, and “complaining on windows”.

And, I miss a bit all I had on Reddit not going to lie.

So is there any active community with some positive things anywhere you’d recommend. I just feel like I’m in a bad angry environment.

I’ve got:

!wholesome@kbin.social

!wholesomememes@lemmy.ml

!cat@lemmy.world

!rpgmemes@ttrpg.network

!pixelart@lemmy.ml

!photography@lemmy.ml

!cafe@monyet.cc

!houseplants@mander.xyz

Edit: Wow! If you come after, I’d truly, truly invite you to look around in the comments, people here truly changed the way I see Lemmy, its way different now! Way better!

    I really agree. I want to like Lemmy, I really do, but every post is doom filled negativity. It’s like a big negativity circlejerk where people are only ever posting about stuff they hate, like Elon and Twitter/X and Chrome and capitalism. There is very little content that actually celebrates something. Perhaps this is the issue with social media in general, as that has been the vibe I’ve gotten from Twitter and why I’ve never really been much of a user of it. There is definitely a similar thing on Reddit but Reddit is large enough that you can find pockets (usually smaller niche communities) that are more filled with positivity. But maybe Lemmy doesn’t have enough of a critical mass to foster those sorts of communities yet.
