I don't know if others are experiencing a similar situation. My all feed is very sparse with engagement. If I sort top six hours or by top 12 most posts have between 5-10 comments. I feel like there was more in the past? Is engagement dropping off? I'm on lemmy.world as my instance.

I agree about the tone of most responses on Lemmy being rude.

I want to be nice. ๐Ÿ™

Yea, I try to be as nice as I can on the internet. There's no reason to be an ass other than you're miserable and want other people to be as well.

It's a mixed bag though, I've had some people be assholes but I ignore them if they have nothing of substance to say and focus on the positive communications.

Also, blocking the Linux communities really helped my feed. Idk what it is about the Linux superiority complex. Although I feel like most of it comes from a good place, the delivery of the information usually isn't the best.
