Hi I just signed up to this Lemmy instance. I don’t like the so-called Reddit communities for NZ. There’s too much sarcasm and complaining, and not enough good sense, or enough political action (eg. on housing).
I give it a few weeks until we’re inundated with the usual politics, cost of living, housing, supermarket posts. It’ll be like we never left Reddit.
I don’t mind these topics, I think we need real life meetings, not people online who ask “hey has anyone else feel the same way as I do, regarding __________”. If people feel the urge to get this out of their system, they need to do it offline. Supermarket posts need to go into a cancer category. Some topics just crop up every week or month, and there should be a board called cancer, for this purpose. Some of these topics (usually people’s frustrations) wear my patience, but I want to support those people if I can.

It’s always a shitshow whenever politics is a topic of discussion, mostly because of how left the sub leans. Anyone right of centre just gets piled on.
Welcome! All the Lemmy communities are still working out what kind of place they will be, including this one. But you’re welcome to help shape it to the kind of place you’d like to visit :)
I’d like a place where people are more intelligent than the average Redditor LOL. There are so many nay-sayers on Reddit. Anyone with initiative just gets attacked. I’ll invite some people right now in fact. I’d like to talk about the housing crisis, the rental crisis, the cost of living crisis and also foreign policy (especially Ukraine and Taiwan). I believe that New Zealanders are being misled by the media and government.
Do we have to do this so soon? I just got here.
