You are spot on and it's infuriating in the opposite direction. I sub to a small local city sub reddit and people will post the same question every day instead of just doing a quick search to find that their same question has been asked 20 times this month.
For a while, I was still using reddit to go to those small niche subs, but now they are garbage too
The comments have gotten just as bad too. Trolls and Bots everywhere. No moderation. Also, the voting system works well when it's mostly sane and intelligent people there. Now the dumbest comments get upvoted super high and any long critical, intelligent responses get downvoted to oblivion.
It's very hard to do. I can only go into what helped with me but I schedule it in. Everything else in my life is basically scheduled so you have to make the time. Meditation
I meditate 30 minutes every other day. It's helped significantly. Think of it like a gym schedule and hold yourself to it. Obviously there is never enough time in the day to do everything you want but this thing is one of the most important at this point.
Same. I would love for someone to create a real debrid - stremio equivalent for music instead of video.
That's my biggest worry right now. With the how increase of people coming over from reddit, there is bound to be turmoil and fragmentation. I just want to know what to do that is best for getting stability going forward
I have a 10 year old account. I saw that some people were trying to sell their accounts on ebay but it doesn't look like too many people are buying right now.
I'm hoping someone can help me out with the federation side of all this.
I created an account in lemmy.world, it was getting bogged down by all the new traffic. I then created an account here (lemm.ee). I am currently using the app liftoff to do all this. I am logged into both accounts (same username). How is this comment saved?
If for instance, lemm.ee were to shutdown would everything posted here disappear? Or because I am logged into the lemmy.world instance would it still be there? I'm just trying to embrace the new world and do things properly from the beginning to try and reduce fragmentation.
Well said. Not to mention the article title calls out Proton but it's basically all the noteworthy e2ee email products. Very click baity
