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?

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.

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

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

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

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

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)

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

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.
