lemmy is pretty good at making the news less depressing, but only if you're willing to put the work in.

What did Ed Sheeran do now? Lol

It also depends where you scroll for memes, for example basically in every Polish meme site you will encounter tons of rightwing memes each scroll. News sites are also very rightwing though, so idk. Meme sites have way less adds though.

Pretty much all my news I get from memes. If it's not meme worthy, then it's not newsworthy.

ikr.

It helps if you branch out from general meme communities a little, but you can keep it all memes. NonCredibleDefense has kept me on top of the various ongoing conflicts, for example.
