Is anyone else tired of the doom posts on Lemmy? (lemmy.world)

When scrolling Lemmy (compared to reddit in the past), all I see is doom and gloom / news. I don't see interesting conversations or comments to read.

Occasionally I'll find something, and I've been contributing more, but there's just so much doom that it fills my feed.

I've had to unsubscribe from many communities bc it's just doom news reposts..

Is it just me?

I mean the Ottawa conference literally led to cutting temperature increase by the end of the century in half but sure kid, nothing of substance has been done.

There is nothing the fossil lobby loves more than for you to be pissy about your right to give up. You're not just letting them win, you're getting amgy with people pointing out that you're letting them win.

Where was I angry? I was adding to the conversation and you decided to be a whiny asshole with your sad attempt at belittling me (kid, really?). You're quite pathetic, bud.
