First post after joining Lemmygrad! I don’t really interact with the internet beyond lurking, but hoping to find comradery here. Also first meme I’ve ever made haha.

    Hey, as someone who has hated most of social media because of all the negativity, insane stupidity, bigotry and other nonsense, I have come to really like interacting quite frequently on here - through commenting as well as posting - because it is mostly free from all that crap you get elsewhere

      I feel what you were saying; I always felt anxious every time I posted on Instagram or something because I was expecting a certain reaction instead of just sharing to share. Since I realized that I haven’t had many social media accounts, which feels isolating, but I can’t opt out of that negativity without opting out of the platform itself. Reddit was better(ish) because I always stayed anonymous, but it is exhausting to see just reactionary takes in every comment section, even non political ones.
