  I’m not exactly asking for solutions. I’m wondering how people are dealing with that and why.

    I’m wondering how people are dealing with that and why.

    Few things.

    The negativity here isn’t just coming from politics, is lemmy as a whole. That said, when it becomes insensit, I take a break from lemmy from a few days to maybe a week and a half.

    I still check reports and dms to address important matters but no commenting or posting or scrolling

    When I do come back, I’ve had a break enough to be able to ignore all the bs enough to participate. You can’t consume that toxic shit either.

    I already know lemmy is toxic negative and highly political worth little to no engagement in non political stuff. So stick to subscribed communities.

    And only look at rage bait when I’m good enough and detached enough to ignore it and have no desire to engage with it. You can’t bc its never gunna stop.

    Lemmy is mostly toxic. Little fun. Just stick to the ‘little fun’ and don’t deviate from it. If you do it’s time to step away and take a break

    The ALL feed is never gunna be like reddit. Don’t trick yourself thinking it will be because it won’t.

  People don’t participate here with those. Most lemmy ppl only engage with politics

    If you look at the most popular communities, 3/5 first ones are not politics.

        I think you are looking at your local community list.
