I am just wondering... is it me- or is there a LOT of just general negativity here.
Every other post I see is...
- America is bad.
- Capitalism is bad. Socialism/Communism is good.
- If you don't like communism, you are a fascist nazi.
Honestly, it's kind of killing my mood with Lemmy. There are a few decent communities/subs here, but, the quality of content appears to be falling.
I mean, FFS. It can't just be me that is noticing this. It honestly feels like I am supporting a communist platform here.
I am on social media to post and read about things related to technology, automation, race cars, etc.
Every other technology post, is somebody bashing on Elon Musk (actually- that is deserved), or talking about Reddit (Let it go. Seriously. We are here, it is there).
On my hobby of liking racecars, I guess, half of the people on lemmy feel it is OK to vandalize a car for being too big.... and car hate culture is pretty big.
All of this is really turning off my mood regarding lemmy.
You might want to hop to an instance that has Hexbear / lemmygrad defederated. Building an echo chamber != taking care of yourself and keeping from getting inundated.
I run this instance.
And, honestly, I have not had too many issues from hexbear/lemmygrad surprisingly.
Fair enough, and good on you for running your own instance! How hard/easy is it?
It's pretty easy for me, but, do note, I also make a living developing software, and running public services.
Although, keeping on top of stuff can be fun. There is basically no administration tools built into lemmy.

That's neat - thank you for the link.
