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.

    Yeah, I’ve been getting the same feeling too. Seems like it’s become more news heavy since I joined. Bad news tends to get more engagement on social media in general than good news, so any site that discusses news a lot is going to trend negative. I do wish there were more non tech or non news communities on here though. Seems like there were several that started up during the Reddit migration that have since withered.
