When scrolling Lemmy (compared to reddit in the past), all I see is doom and gloom / news. I don’t see interesting conversations or comments to read.
Occasionally I’ll find something, and I’ve been contributing more, but there’s just so much doom that it fills my feed.
I’ve had to unsubscribe from many communities bc it’s just doom news reposts…
Is it just me?
I didn’t see what’s bad about it, people usually have to deal with “bad” stuff it’s just part of being alive, unless you want to live in a fantasy echo chamber.
Some people get stressed about seeing bad news constantly and have a hard time separating themselves from the news. Hence the term doomscrolling.
OP sounds like that kind of person. Perhaps you don’t experience it like that - consider yourself lucky :)
