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?

    You’ve gotta start somewhere.

    Consider that with both Reddit and Digg, their initial communities where mostly technical, and with time, the creative people slowly and gradually got in.

    However IMO finding an active community within the diaspora of finicky servers and empty channels, makes it less alluring than a centralized service.

    I simply hope that at some point, finding out communities will become easier.
