Yes. Lemmy is extremely negative. You just get bombarded with how shit the world is constantly. It's honestly a slog being here sometimes and it pushed many people away.

I gave Lemmy another go after being gone for 2 years but I'm honestly not really having a good time lol

    the issue is the people who have internalized that don't see it that way. they see endless doomerism posts as 'the truth' being exposed and if feels good to have themselves validated.

    anytime you try to offer a counter-narrative, you get told you are the one who is evil and spouting propaganda. like if you point how how life in 2026 is so convenient compared to life 20-30 years ago, or the huge strides we have made in health and nutrition, you're evil.

    and don't you ever dare suggest that people have agency or the ability to make choices... no we are all leaves in the wind of some oligarchic conspiracy of billionaires or something...
