Where are all the Positive, Wholesome Communities gone, and where are all the hugs, where is my wholesome memes, to help me fight, the politics

Hey, I’ve been looking at what I’m subscribed to on Lemmy and it really grim, and not really what I want from a social media. I’m into tech, but the tech subs talk about evil things companies do, a lot of linux meme and programmer humor, and it’s all cool and all, piracy talking about how it’s bad what certain company do. And when you go in global it’s “Amercan Politics” “Elon Musk Bad” “Stealing data”, “our world ending”

Recently my brother and I where bored, and I went to show him we moved to lemmy, and said we had memes and all the stuff here. And looking at top memes, it was “complaining about big tech”, and “complaining on windows”.

And, I miss a bit all I had on Reddit not going to lie.

So is there any active community with some positive things anywhere you’d recommend. I just feel like I’m in a bad angry environment.

I’ve got:

!wholesome

!wholesomememes

!cat

!rpgmemes

!pixelart

!photography

!cafe

!houseplants

Edit: Wow! If you come after, I’d truly, truly invite you to look around in the comments, people here truly changed the way I see Lemmy, its way different now! Way better!

ekky43,

I feel ya, a few of my personal favorites when it comes to escaping all the politics are:

!aminals

!itemshop

!nathanwpyle

!raccoons

!witchymemes

And then of course all of the ImaginaryX communities, which I’m sure there exists a register of somewhere, but I just sub as I stumble across them.

Kyoyeou,

Witchymemes looks very fun

Lando_,

Witchy memes has been surprisingly active too. I’d add tumblr and wholesome Yuri but those aren’t nearly as active as witchy memes. Lol

Papanca,

!lemmybewholesome

Kyoyeou,

Thank you! This is a great community!

Very_Bad_Janet,

Upliftingnews on Lemmy.World is a good one. I'm on kbin so not sure how to link:

@upliftingnews

Kyoyeou,

I’ve got the tip to put a ! Instead of the @ in front so that no matter where you are on the Lemmy verse you can open it!

Very_Bad_Janet,

So like this?

https://lemmy.world/c/upliftingnews

I hope this works for everyone. Thanks for the tip!

Kyoyeou,

I think you also need to add the name behind of the serv: Like this : !upliftingnews Edit: Yeah like that!

There are some surprisingly active craft communities here that are by definition pretty wholesome, but I guess probably not that interesting if you’re not into the specific hobbies themselves. ymmv. You can find a sticky thread with a ton of them listed here lemmy.world/post/1715954

Kyoyeou,

Just took a look and subscribed to some of those to learn a bit!

iforgotmyinstance,

Had to block it due to low effort posts. I’m a huge Trek fan but holy shit the content is baaaaaad.

Bebo,

To keep negative things to a minimum I have subscribed to a cat community, aww community, two dog communities, and have restricted myself to only one technology community. No news communities.

Astroturfed,

The boomers had the whole summer of love, where huge hippies. To quote a famous poet of years gone by “I saw a dead head sticker on a Cadillac, a little voice inside my head said, don’t look back, you can never look back.”

Nothing stays the same. Change is the only constant, and destruction is the beat to which humanity dances.

I’ll add !bunnynewsnetwork

A lot of the picture ones are good.

!pics - busiest

!analog - film photography

Somebody mentioned the “imaginary” communities. This is my favourite, if you look in the sidebar you’ll find others: !imaginarywitches

And I will be bringing back my 20+ imaginary subs too once I’m ready to go back to actively posting stuff.

Thisfox,

I am missing the catsubs. Calicos, voids, standard issue, whatevers. Feline fanciers posting pics of their purr machines. Doesn’t seem to be a thing here.

Although I enjoy getting into the trenches with politics here on Lemmy, I’m really happy to have found a community (not on Lemmy) where I can find people like what you’re looking for, just a place where everyone, for the most part anyway, is nice and friendly and supportive. Unfortunately, it won’t do much for you unless you’re a fan of a somewhat obscure American TV show because you wouldn’t get our endless references.

Brekky,

What show?

FlyingSquid,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Mystery Science Theater 3000.

If you're wondering how flying squids eat and breathe and other science facts, repeat to yourself "It's just a name; I should really just relax."

Wholesome isn’t interesting to a lot of us. I have work, operating systems, programming, news, politics, and being right to worry about. Wholesome is for winter days off while sipping cocoa instead of coffee. We’re not there yet, and even then there is the worry of certain holiday cheer being irritating, and those holiday songs that drill into your head from family and stores. Yikes.

corsicanguppy,

a social media

  1. social media [ no singular article, no additional noun]
  2. a social media site/service/something [ article and noun ]

You want to pick a lane.

mojo,

I think the best way to go is to use the everything feed for discovery and to find new communities, then spend most of your time in subscriptions
