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?

    the general theme amongst Gen Z in particular is ecological awareness and sustainability

    That’s the difference between stated and realized preferences. If I were to answer a poll I’d say those things are important to me aswell but I still drive a diesel truck. Just because a person says something is important to them it doesn’t mean every aspect of their life is going to reflect that.
