It’s not so much that I think my content was such a great and big addition to the site on why I want to delete. In fact, it’s not that at all.
I just like the idea of Reddit being riddled with posts with comment threads that don’t offer much as a whole as most stuff has been removed. I’m just trying to do my part, and if it makes a few people aware of Lemmy, all the better.
I look at it this way… I’d rather the information start being posted here or somewhere besides Reddit, and eventually that place will be more relevant.
It’s the main reason why Reddit was a giant circle jerk. I like here that you can upvote and downvote things but it’s not connected to your account at all. Just connected to the comment or post, as it should be.
Actually, they ate meat as much as they could. Just wasn’t always available without good ways to store it long term. But there’s a reason why they were called hunter gatherers and why humans evolved to be able to run long distances and are heat tolerant, because our ancestors ran down prey by exhausting it.
But as far as we know all people hunted at least until early agriculture started being practiced
…and you could do the same thing and eat exclusively from the animal kingdom too.
If you don’t want to eat anything from the animal kingdom for your own reasons, cool. But when you start saying anything about what other people eat, imo you are no different than someone saying their religion/beliefs are best. Just don’t.
Humans are omnivores and always have been, society and technology today has only recently allowed humans to strictly become vegetarians on any kind of scale. Specific eating habits for moral reasons is a thing people who aren’t poor in first world countries have the privilege of doing. People in 3rd world countries/poor people are simply going to eat whatever is available to them.
Again, no one is wrong here, until one starts advocating that their way is best or better.
I just eat what I like, which is a combination of plants and animals.
Quantity doesn’t necessarily mean quality either. Many plants are edible in the regard that they won’t kill you, but are mostly unpleasant to eat. Because if we are going to compare apples to apples we can surely eat over 80,000 different species from the animal kingdom.
Really not sure if it counts as meditation, but sitting in nature.
I’m an avid bow hunter of whitetail deer. While I do enjoy the part of predator and prey, and a bonus of putting food on the table, the real reason I hunt is to go sit in nature for awhile.
I climb up into a tree, hang my bow, put on my release. If it’s morning, watching the sun come up in the woods and all the daytime creatures wake up is quite enjoyable. In the evening, watching the sun go down and all the daytime creatures settling in, and the nighttime ones coming out. I’m a spectator to the world we live in outside of society.
It’s quiet, I blend in, I’m as scent free as possible, and I sit still and quiet and I feel like a part of the woods around me. It makes me feel connected to the land and how I am one small part of the world we live in. It’s as close as I will get to any form of reality our ancient ancestors had.
That’s definitely the worst part for me too. But if people make the switch here and the user base grows and over time you curate your feed here, it could eventually be that again.
I’m just ready to sacrifice that to say “screw you” to Reddit. Finding this platform has just been a pleasant surprise
