I feel like I'm spending less time on social media after switching to Lemmy

Jump

  • I’ve always assumed it was due to the size of Reddit. I don’t care about anime at all but because lots of other people do it reaches the front page. This is why I became very liberal with the block button to tailor the feed.

    • People are getting fed up with all the useless tech in their cars

    Jump

  • I love the knob but hate that in 2021 they ‘upgraded’ the auto start to being in an app.

    • Place is going exactly as expected

  • Looks like it.

  • Yeah, before I looked up the translation I figured it was "whore's son" which is close enough.

  • Still haven't seen a "join lemmy" but gotta love "Digg 4 Lyfe"

    Edit: It actually says DGG 4 LYFE.

  • You missed the best part, in the German Flag, they've written "u/spez ist ein Hurensohn!"

    Translation: u/spez is a son of a whore/bitch (Google says bitch, commenters are saying whore.)

    • What's the most toxic game community you know of?

    Jump

  • I think you’re on to something here. I play all kinds of games with friends, and DOTA was the only one where I’d actively get shit on for my lack of skill. And that’s from real life friends too.

    • What is something really stupid you purchased that turned out far better than expected?

    Jump

  • Similarly, the felt version of this. Nice for if you need to move something, ie furniture (we have wood floors).

    • Dammit

    Jump

  • Best thing I ever did was hang peg board. Two actually, one for pans (pots still live in the cabinet), and another for the most used utensils. I love having all my measuring spoons and cups hanging next to the cutting board.

    • Is the internet healing?

    Jump

  • Yes, but I think it's as @Candelestine@lemmy.world says. As any form of social media grows past a certain point, the more everything becomes 'averaged out' to the lowest common denominator. IE the things that get upvoted the most end up being only things with mass appeal across the breadth of the user base. From past experience we know this is by and large rage-bait.

    Of course this can be mitigated to an extent by carefully curating what you're blocking and subscribed to. Furthermore defederating can effect this but I'm not yet knowledgeable enough to guess how effective.
