The silent majority are never going to have the time to blow on shit that people who get so mentally invested in this stuff do.
That’s what people don’t seem to understand. The silent majority is not mindless by choice. They’re mindless by design.
Thanks for sharing. My nephew went to rehab recently for Xanax and I didn’t really understand it. I didn’t want to prod him or my sister really, so I appreciate the insight.

I did the same thing, granted I had less tenure. I had about 8 years. Reddit had grown more and more tiresome over the last couple years. I was never a super user or much of a contributor. I had maybe 60k total karma, so not a total lurker but not exactly coming in clutch for Reddit content.
Being that I’m on iOS, I truly loved Apollo. Apollo was Reddit for me. I realized when I finally decided to confront the realty of using Power Delete Suite, that I didn’t really care about what was deleted. I used to think I had some kind of kindred relationship with my saved posts and Reddit history. What I realized was that I had never actually reflected back on any of that, so what was the point in clutching my pearls over deleting it.
I did finally go through with it, but it was mostly symbolic. I haven’t been on Reddit in quite some time. My main issue right now is needing a reasonable replacement for Reddit. At first, lemmy seemed like it scratched the itch. As I went on, I started to realize the itch was being scratched primarily by memes. Then it continued to dawn on me how long it would take to build a community like what Reddit had.
I have mixed feelings about the emulation of Reddit. I do think we have the early adopter crew currently, and that crew has, time and time again, proven to be a good crew. I feel like Lemmy needs to come into its own organically, as Reddit did. I see a lot of copy and paste communities based on subreddits, and that’s fine, but some are a little on the nose. I think we as a community need to get more creative and take ownership of Lemmy apart from Reddit. That may just take time.
There’s a surprisingly more expansive demographic that pro tip applies to.
Testing… I have to keep trying this because memmy is being a dick.
Yet when I say I have mighty morphing power in my pocket, people look at me funny.
It’s a case study in mild inconvenience how complicated my department managed to make the copier.
You used to just load the document and press the green button. Everything is done through the cloud now, including scanning.
I’m sure it’s real important for cyber security but it’s not entertaining explaining it to everyone who needs to perform a simple task.
Naturally. No sense in suffering 0 or 1 times, I have to suffer twice or more!
