Does the threadiverse (Lemmy + Kbin) seem ruder the last few weeks?
I dunno. I just feel less like I'm experiencing a fun new tool for communication the last few weeks. The communities here on Beehaw are still great and fantastic and aren't what I'm bothered by. It's just when I venture out in the world (which I often do) that I notice conversations are much more argumentative than I remember them being.
How's everyone else doing? Is this a minor vibez check?

I have had this feeling too recently. One thing I did which has helped me is to unsubscribe from most news/politics except here at Beehaw.
Yeah I think it might be time for me to admit I've found enough communities and stop browsing all of them to find the new communities. I might designate a day once a week to visit the all feed to find something new
Your one day a week is a good idea, I think I'll copy it.
What I really want yo do is to be more creative community member again instead of a passive content consumer. Not sure what form that will take yet.
Politics discussion seems to bring out the worst part of a lot of people
I'm not even joined to all the news, memes, and politics communities but they show up in my feed anyway? How do I get rid of them?
I have to filter to subscribed to not see them but even then sometimes they are there. Maybe its just the instance that I'm in?
As a general rule All will show them unless you block them. I block all the big politics communities.
Subscribed shouldn't show them though. As far as I can tell the only times they will turn up in subscribed anyway is if someone you follow favourites them or comments on them.
damn, I guess I'll just go block them all. How irritating lol
