Yeah, the doomposting is intense on Lemmy. I've taken up a policy of just downvoting any negative posts I see, even if I like the post otherwise, just to tamp down the negativity a bit around here.
The best and worst thing about Lemmy is how niche we are. It keeps out the "mainstream", but unfortunately we're easily inundated by perpetually-online doomers.
Also, I would recommend blocking users moreso than communities. Once you start looking for it, you realize that like 90% of these posts are made by just a few people/bots.
....trying to determine if your post is positive or negative, up or down....
Good question, I suppose I'm being negative about negativity.
Honestly, feel free to downvote, you have my blessing lol.
If you make a decent negative argument, in a perfect world it should be an upvote.
"If", tho'....
Normally I would agree 100%. I'm specifically more harsh here just because I find the ratio to be so off.
Dude, you're almost doing too well to downvote!
Do worse!
