Weekly "What are you playing" Thread || Week of July 9th

Jump

  • I'm playing Doom & Doom 2, with custom monster sounds.

    • Threads, Mastodon, and the Loneliness of Social Media

    Jump

  • Pages/Apps like Threads make me feel really insecure and insignificant, like my self esteem lost all its value and the only thing I want is to be relevant, to matter to people. And because those things are very difficult unless you're a celebrity, it creates frustration, shattered dreams, more impatience, depression, and a deep feeling of irrelevance. I don't want that in my life, especially being myself a neurodivergent person. My goal is to create relationships, not footmen.

    • The Release Date and Key Features of Windows 12 Unveiled

    Jump

  • The final one with the number 10, obviously.

    • What forgotten cult classic games are worth revisiting?

    Jump

  • I'm about to finish the main campaign on Dungeon Keeper, and I've tried the New Game+ Campaign with KeeperFX. What a blast I had when I was a child.

    • Meta's New Instagram Spinoff, Threads, Looks Like the Opposite of Existing Fediverse Services

    Jump

  • I think it's a), but only because who has an Instagram account, automatically has a Threads account. There is no other way that 70 million people "joined" in just 3 days.

    • Should beehaw defederate from meta?

    Jump

  • Beehaw signed the fedipact. That makes defederation official.

    • if you could go back in time and talk to your past self, what time would you go back to, and what would you say to them?

    Jump

  • 2004, early summer, when I was 16: "You've ADHD and ASD, you should ask your parents to go to a psychiatrist, and everything will be better afterwards."

    • Another reason to leave Reddit: I forgot how hostile it can be

    Jump

  • For reasons I already pointed out several times (and which I don't mind pointing out again), I had severe anxiety and rejection sensitiveness when I wrote comments on Reddit, fearing their responses. Sometimes those fears were correct, and sometimes don't, but the fact that I suffered those things was enough to feel myself in danger. Twitter, Reddit, all was the same shit regarding interaction with other people.

    Since I joined the fediverse and became more active, those fears were lowering. That, and the fact that I'm taking medication for my ADHD. But a good environment and friendly human interaction help too.

    • Well, I just nuked all my Reddit accounts.

    Jump

  • I deleted my two year account two or three weeks ago. It was my second account, after a one year hiatus. 2,8K karma. most of it from comments. I posted most frequently on r/ADHD and on r/r4r.

    Due to anxiety and rejection sensitive dysphoria, I almost never read any reply or private message after posting a comment on certain subreddits. I guess reddit was not a good site for undiagnosed/untreated ADHD & ASD people.

    Things changed a lot since I joined Kbin and since I'm more active on Lemmy. I regret nothing.
