  • I've also noticed that I'm losing interest in gaming recently. Whenever I get notified by steam that something on my wishlist is on sale I just look at it and move on. I started playing chess again for the first time since I was I kid and it's been keeping me satisfied.

  • I'm not even that old (no offense) and I do that too. I'll use apps if it doesn't collect any data, and preferably FOSS, like Voyager. Anyways, thanks for the tip, I'll log in on browser for my instance blocking needs.

    Edit: jk, according to another comment, it's not available on lemmy.world at the moment. Soon though.

  • My reasoning is that the people should be the "mods" essentially. If one community gets blocked by the majority of the people, then it might as well not exist. It will eventually die out through not enough people upvoting/downvoting, commenting, and basically interacting with them at all. The "any publicity is good publicity" saying applies to anything on the Internet.

  • Block whole communities. That's what I started doing. There's one instance that I would like to block but that feature isn't available yet as far as I'm aware. Reddit was the same way around 10 years ago, it's been pruned and censored to the point where it's more appealing to the average worldwide user. I don't want that to happen to Lemmy; not to sound dismissive, but utilize your block list instead of calling for more/better mods.

  • I just dropped Sync. I've used it for reddit since the app came out. Even paid for the premium version years ago. My purchase didn't carry over to the lemmy version, and I noticed the app collects data for marketing now. Switched to Voyager, it's not as fluid as Sync but I'll get used to it.
