Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected] or [email protected]
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

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...

FINDING NEW/GOOD COMMUNITIES ON LEMMY
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 [email protected], but that's really for communities that are just starting out.

Ah. @[email protected] just mentioned [email protected] on newcommunities.
EDIT2: and if I'd finished reading your comment, it has it at the bottom too.
