Finding wholesome communities

I had way too much negative interaction latelly. I think there is no value in getting inflammed by politics, or venting all your negative emotions.

Anyone have a list of wholesome communities that are like, word games, or drawings, wholesome roleplay, drawing, or other such interactive wholesome communities?

!dull_mens_club@lemmy.world is exactly that. Just dudes talking about boring dude shit with each other

Huh, seems I'm already a part of that one. Thanks!

If you're willing to do some heavy lifting up front, running all/new for a few weeks and blocking communities that are home to content you don't like will leave you with a feed tailored exactly to your tastes. This would never work for a popular network like reddit but in an unknown niche platform like the fediverse, it works great. I haven't seen content I don't care for in ages and see more cute cats, dogs, turtles, owls and bats than you can shake a stick at.

It's brutal for a bit but will net you every active wholesome community in quick order.

Oh unique cuteness! Is it just one artist making all the art?

Community description says:

Very interesting. This person just keeps blessing the world with bunnies, for free?!?

Magnificent isnt it? :)

Is that one still active? The most recent posts I can see are two months old.

FoxyFerengi@startrek.website · 6 pts · 92d (3 replies)

I think you might have a federation issue, there are daily posts that I can see. Even one as recent as five hours ago

anna@retrofed.com · 2 pts · 92d (2 replies)

Hmm. How would I check that? Did my instance defederate?

Edit: Apparently we're federated. Still can't see any recent posts, though.

FoxyFerengi@startrek.website · 4 pts · 92d

If I remember correctly, people from your server need to subscribe to the community for the posts to federate. I can't remember if it's just one subscriber or if more are needed. Sorry, that's not super helpful >.<

That instance is closing down in July, so many communities are likely moving (or the members are)

rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 11 pts · 92d

I just made !littlewins@lemmy.blahaj.zone last week, tell us about your minor achievements!

Kolanaki@pawb.social · 11 pts · 91d (1 reply)

!LadyButterfly@piefed.blahaj.zone has a handful of wholesome communities she moderates.

WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today · 5 pts · 91d

I'm very well aware of LadyButterfly. Thank you Kolanaki!

!THE_PACK@lemmy.world - Aggressively supportive memes themed as badass biker skeletons.

!Dad for a Minute@lemmy.world - When you don't have a dad available, but want to talk to one. Posts like "Hey dad, how do I replace a sink faucet?" or "I still miss you, Dad. Happy birthday." I swing between tears and smiles when reading it.

!Stick@sh.itjust.works - cool sticks people find!

WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 90d (1 reply)

Very funny! I didn't know Potatoo had that. Will pass for now, need to posiwash myself before I start gnawing human bones.

clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 90d

If you say so.

I can't speak from experience but Beehaw.org is supposed to be a pretty chill place in theory. Don't know if they pulled it off in practice though so YMMV

WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today · 3 pts · 92d

Didn't hear of it, will try! Thank you!

EDIT: Apparently, I can't even handle good news of bad things happening to bad people. I'm crayon tier now.
