Yeah, this fuck Spez thing is cool and justified and all, but we all should be really more worried about Tencent 😳

This isn't a good analogy at all.
If it should be forcibly used, like, reddit is an ex, then fuck no we're not over that ex. They took our home that we built and destroyed it.
I just discovered Lemmy, and I'm so happy about it. Instagram replaced Reddit for me these last five months, and I can really feel how detrimental it is for me. It's like an ADHD-machine. No community, no discussion, just this as quick and loud phase as possible vibe. You look through one recipe video and you get recipes for several days. People dancing and dancing with huge smiles and these creepy eyes. Honestly it's all so dystopian.
So keeping on with Instagram is not an option, going back to reddit is not an option - and I was really considering becoming like this person who is never in his phone, really mentally healthy, but wildly uninformed about the world and the general discussion 😅
The feel of this place with the Sync app is just so * chefs kiss *. Feels like what reddit was.
Bro, he read it as 'erection' 😂
My workplace disabled extensions today, and I'm just mindblown by the amount of ads I've been blissfully ignorant about. I play music from youtube while working, but every time I'm in a good flow now, getting stuff done, there's an ad-break that takes me out of that flow. Tiring having to work up that momentum all the time.
