I think most people would agree with the sentiment, but it's probably a side effect of people being a bit lost.
If you can't find the community or discussion where you could contribute more niche information, having the general reddit exodus topic at least lets you participate.
And I think that is the common thread of optimism. Even with the confusion and the jank, it still feels good to be somewhere welcoming and new.
Yep, it's definitely gonna take some time to adjust.
I've setup my own community as I couldn't find one that existed for it already, but no idea how best to actually spread the word about it.
But enjoying finding out how it all works and discovering more communities

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync. Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that? A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn’t get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn’t actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
