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?
I mean, News is always skewed negative imo. Why I don’t follow it.
And the Memmy app just added keyword filtering so I can now avoid the worst topics! :)
I agree. It’s the nature of the news. Vanilla feed has lots of news, and even localized communities (countries, cities) are more about news. Could be as simple as that.
