I have encountered some negativity on Lemmy recently, so I just wanted to start a laid back thread to see what are people's plans for the week-end - eviltoast

So, what are you guys up to?

    Love this thread and the responses I’m seeing so far. We have big plans to cuddle the baby all weekend, go to a greenhouse and farmers market, hit up a park, and spend some quality time reading as a family.

    As an aside, one of the things I really appreciate about the size of Lemmy is how the users are a lot more recognizable (and not just the novelty accounts like on Reddit or other bigger platforms). It’s been interesting to see how a user can infuriate me one one thread but then have me arguing in their defense in a separate thread. It’s a good reminder that people are multi-faceted and everyone is going to have both hot and garbage takes. But one thing I appreciate is being able to have a conversation on Lemmy even when we disagree on topics.

      Very true!
