I was just thinking about this yesterday. These days, Lemmy is just making me depressed. I like to read comments to get further insight to articles, maybe someone trying to point out the author’s bias, or a joke. But Lemmy comments are all some variation of “the world is doomed”, “kill this person”, or “capitalism is the root of all woe”. They are neither useful, insightful, or improve my day in any way. Lemmy is making my life less enjoyable. It was already an overall negative and cynical space during the Biden administration; now it is unbearable.

I’ve been on Lemmy for a long time now, since Reddit killed 3rd party clients with their API change, but now I think I might go back to Reddit. The company itself has a lot of problems, but at least I can get a lot of non-doom content to fill my day.

“would Luigi approve?”

I did this same thing when I was in Austin. When the cost of a decent drink at the bar you’re going to is the same price, it’s not too much to pay for carsitting services. But tbh I paid him half out of charity and half because I can’t be sure he would slash my tires for NOT giving him the money. He knows where my car is and knows I’m going to be away for a while. Better safe than sorry.
