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.

    There’s no perfect social media. You either get a bubble room where nothing is interesting or has any weight to it and all people post is Tumblr level material, or you get a Nazi hellscape where half the words on the entire site are just the N word. Lemmy is currently dead center in the middle of all that and that’s probably the best you can hope for.

    I don’t feel like I left to “stick it to Reddit” so much as they made it miserable to use. If RiF worked I’d use it.
