This sounds like a client problem. Modern Lemmy has community blocks as part of the insurance user profile. Have you tried web client or another app?

Why is it that no matter where in the world, what country or what the apparent topic is, literally every geographically specific community on Lemmy , just like every geographic specific sub on Reddit, is negative. Literally every story is about something horrible, awful, sad or enraging, never anything positive for anything geographic beyond a national level and rarely even then?

Why is this with geographic communities and not others?
