Humans evolved to pay close attention to danger, but today that instinct is being overwhelmed by an endless supply of bad news from around the world. Researchers say the answer isn’t to stop following current events—it’s to build healthier habits around how, when, and where we get our news.
Isn’t this the thing we are doing by being on Lemmy? My mental state is better when I scroll the feed here, as opposed to scrolling reddit.
I do both still, but I’m nearing the phase where Lemmy gets more attention.
It’s just fucked that I read too much so I might run out of content on Lemmy which pushes me to read the news then back to reddit untill I wake up again
You might take some of the time you’re doomscrolling and read a silly book. Not a lot, like 30 mins.
I’ve found my attention span destroyed now. I don’t read much any more at all, it’s kinda sad.
I think it’s also because I work from home and a commute used to isolate me and I’d be forced to read.
Hopefully not while driving.
lmao no, I hate driving … always the bus, train or subway. I can barely text and walk let alone text and drive.
I read books too.

When you finally decide to leave reddit, remember to make some posts or comments inviting people to join lemmy
Oh no I’ve been banned so many times since the fascist took over
Don’t have an account anymore it’s not worth it. Lurking is fine. Mental health way better not being able to respond
It’s really bad now even just saying fascists should be punished gets you banned. Imagine that.
Here, I hope, I am free to say things. Even:
Hang Elon musk and burn Trump alive. Prosecute all of the evil people to the max. Kill dictators, fight the power. Bleed for each other and see the new sun rise.
I’ve noticed recently that reddit just makes you a random username and you can comment without having an account. I’m sure it’s still tracking you somehow but it’s kinda nice to still comment on something you’re looking up info for. I guess it makes sense with the AI modeling data usage now. It wouldn’t surprise me to learn that they have enough data now to weigh comments based on the information they have about each user. Like if someone works in IT their comments get a little bit higher accuracy scores in the IT subs and same for any profession and it’s corresponding sub.
I haven’t seen this and I don’t think I’ll ever return
We all know it’s been bad, getting worse
Really at the point where reddit lost its grimey subs and even dropped support for darknet market subs was the big tell
Then the API changes… I still miss relay
Does can go fuck himself and truly, the crowd on reddit now, meaning the current generation of Americans mostly, is completely and utterly retarded.
Actually I just realized I was completely wrong about the reddit thing, I just made a profile on a different email account and forgot, apparently it was just logging me into reddit automatically and I didn’t realize.
As a low support needs retard myself I tend to agree with you. But your use of our word makes me question your priorities. And I’ve been told that the word hasn’t been reclaimed enough even by my community to effectively use it this way yet. But we work towards a better tomorrow every day
Hey man, I was raised by a mother whose worked with mentally handicapped people all my life. People with down syndrome are awesome
I’m not American, and in my culture it’s ridiculous to “claim a word”. The people on reddit are not half as smart as the people I played with as a kid when I went to moms work like we often did. So excuse me but I’ll say it again
Reddit is full of actual retards
Not nice people like you that respond with correct spelling and in context. No, you are not retarded enough to claim the word in my opinion even if you could claim a word.
Sure it can be a derogatory term. But fuck man we need to be able to use language and have power words. It’s exactly the problem in America where everything is appropriated and nothing is allowed because me me me that culture is going to hell.
