Yeah, I’m getting ready to stop scrolling “All”. It’s becoming more depressing than Reddit or Facebook ever was. US Presidential Election year rage bait is back in full swing I guess and Lemmy isn’t immune. I might lean more back into my hobbies, personal projects, and games while keeping my news feeds on a weekly review.

I just dipped my feet in Vim yesterday, I found it not intuitive at all. :wq! To exit a read only file? I’m too dumb to think of syntax like that!

I remember when the algorithms started sorting by engagement rather than chronologically. I quickly came up with a workaround to keep my feed the way it was, but, eventually that workaround was removed. I still checked the website occasionally but noticed the overall tone becoming less vane, over sharing, people using it like journals and selfie bombing to more angry, rage filled, posting news articles, boomer cartoons and jpeg fuzzy memes. It took a major turn after 2016 elections in US. Instagram was my go to after that but in about a year or so the same sequence of bs started happening. Haven’t really engaged with either service since 2020 save for occasional things to check a couple times a month.

Man, I want to get back into this game, I never beat it either. But some of the boss battles are like intricate dances. Don’t even get me started on the path of pain.

Looks like straight up rage bait. I mean reddit was heading down that path for at least the last 5 years but that is progressively worse than last July

“Is this still available? I’ll pay you on Venmo now and my son will come by and pick it up. What’s your email?”

I truly enjoy seeing you pop up all over Lemmy, especially with posts and comments like these! Rose gold effort!

Ahhh! Fucking hilarious! Between these games and 4th gen Pokemon I’ve lost more sleep than stress ever did.

OP, you got me. Well played(-apus).

Bahaha the big sock is what I shall call the duvet cover from now on!

I have it enabled as much as possible, also helps for recording how to videos, especially when not recording instructions.

Amen

I don’t care if I just eat it plain. Cheese is cheese!

Wow! This is actually top tier OC, fantastic job OP, especially with the Lemmy call out!
