    It’s a fair point. It feels like I can’t look at any news on lemmy without seeing a large amount of doomers convinced the world is going to end by 2030. Some of their points are valid but their view of the future is overwhelmingly depressing and very exaggerated.

    When I open lemmy, it’s to ignore real life, not to feel even worse about my future

      Solution: don’t look at news communities. Only subscribe to communities without news, politics, or tech…

        Thanks. There are some good communities on here.

        EDIT: I wonder if there should be a community where people pitch existing communities. Like, list a community and why you like it. There’s !newcommunities@lemmy.world, but that’s really for communities that are just starting out.

        investigates

        Ah. @Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com just mentioned !communitypromo@lemmy.ca on newcommunities.

        EDIT2: and if I’d finished reading your comment, it has it at the bottom too.
