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.

    Thanks, guess will block more communities.

    Discovering new communities is still hard, right? The All feed here on Lemmy.nz only shows communities where at least one person has subscribed?

      Yeah, I think so. There are some newcommunities and findacommunity type coms out there, plus I just randomly click on cool people’s post histories to see where they are going.

      Or visiting at an original instance (instead of through here) you can browse theirs without having to be logged in there

      Sometimes you find instances that have a lot of theme stuff, eg mander.xyz has tons of science ones.

      I’ve got accounts on a few different instances for this reason, they’re all federated with different people.

      Hexbear are out there leaving their stench throughout the fediverse, for example.
