Yeah but is Lemmy “bad” social media? Please say no. 🙏

Yes of course it is. it works in the same biological mechanisms as other social media. it can have a negative impact on your mind whether or not the people using it are communist catgirls or tiktok dancers.

I just had a similar conversation with an aspiring game dev who wanted to learn more about tech/gaming addiction. the benevolence of the creator can help, but ultimately the problem comes from the behavior itself (and the underlying desires).

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
