Is there any tech-oriented forum that isn't largely cynical and negative?

Is there any social media that isn't largely cynical and negative?

I also notice how my mindset changes when I don't visit, which really just makes me think I should stop engaging in 90% of online discourse and discussion.

Feels like reddit is at least has a larger percentage of memes and shitposting so there's less overall negativity, but there's also less substance.

Maybe no? I only know of two (not including subreddits): HN and Slashdot. And of the two, Slashdot is far, far, more negative, with the weird addition of American style republican political views. Which, as a European reader, makes it feel like a very right wing place.

Are there any other forums I'm not aware of?
