My rule for online presence is simple, try to convince yourself to not being impulsive.
If you convince yourself you don't have to always write or participate or give a hot take, you will find yourself to be generally positive and more constructive and factual.
Any platform you enjoy has ALWAYS been a result of everyones kindness and politeness. Any platform that encourages impulsive behavior is not a good platform for your mental health or others. People are never impulsively positive. Even when a platform have a general thematic negative tendency towards something, avoiding negative interaction in general is the best course. Even if you can't be always positive , you can atleast be constructive, neutral and factual. At the end of the day, a good community consists friends and if you want to be part of the community, you have to make friends there.
