I find the question as phrased is ambiguous. Are you asking if there are people using Lemmy to express positive emotion in general or to express positivity about Lemmy?
I can comment generally that I do feel like positivity is often in short supply in social media spaces, and when one does encounter it, it may be of the toxic variety.

What does the sweet turning sour tend to look like from what you’ve observed?
In general I think lack of empathy is the main problem, though I think even well-meaning people can make others feel guilty about having normal negative emotions, e.g. “You’ll get through it”. IMO the worst may be the one-uppers, the guy who says “That’s nothing. I knew this other guy who had cancer of the kitten.”
Thinking about it, I generally only share really upsetting news with friends and almost never online.

I took it to mean the former, and not the latter.
