Have you had positive experiences too, or are they primarily negative?
I've had positive experiences, mostly in the shit-posting and meme communities.
Maybe it's just me, but the negative experiences are way more memorable than the positive ones.
Yeah, I definitely feel that way. Positive experiences just feel ambient, and negative experiences feel like distinct events.
Still, I have the sense that Lemmy is mostly positive, even though there are jerks. I have alot of comments with, like... 7 upvotes and 1 downvote, and of course the downvote sticks out in my mind... But then again, way more people were supportive than negative, and that's kinda cool.
They always are.
People need to adhere to “if you have nothing nice to say, it’s better to say nothing at all” if we want Lenny to succeed.
I wish I was better at my hobbies (I plan to invest more in them next year) so I could submit more content and help get communities rolling. I see you have posted a fair few things which I appreciate.
