I don’t post on reddit since I know how futile it is to create any change given its size, but given Lemmy is small I might as well give it a try here.

I’ve been seeing a lot of posts here lately similar the doom and gloom clickbait headlines you would see from news companies. In fact, most top posts seem to have that “Reddit feel” to them.

Please know that posts don’t have to all be negative, there exists positive news in the world and especially positive news when it comes to technology.

For example, did you know a release of a new fully open source LLM called OpenLLaMA just got announced by the Researchers at Berkeley AI Research?

    Lol, a lot of my friends experience all LLM news as doomscrolling basically because of how those tools are being used, to whose profit and at whose expense.

    Not trying to pick a fight about that here, just that it’s funny how relative “doom” is.

    Anywho it would be entirely reasonable to create a community dedicated to good technology news however you define it. Reality itself is pretty dark these days so any given cross-section of it is going to contain a lot of doom by default.
