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 mostly feels like bots throwing up whatever content they find based.on popular topics.

      Sure, but they were popular topics to begin with. Things are getting worse for certain segments of society, and it’s actually a good thing that there is a sobering outlook and not willfully ignoring their plight.
