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?

    It’s become obvious that Millennials and Zoomers see fossil fuels as a curse upon the land

    That’s quite a hasty generalization. May be true on Lemmy but not in the real world. Especially when it comes to millenials.

      Not really, millennials and Zoomers overwhelmingly poll as either seeing the climate crisis as the biggest issue or as it being second biggest next to the affordable housing crisis,

      In both cases, the fossil fuel industry is at least partially to blame

        Yeah but that’s not the same as them seeing fossil fuels as a curse. A huge portion of them are more than happy to own a car.

          Having to own one to be able to do anything but stay home isn’t the same as being more than happy to own one.
