I should have just quit reddit without looking for alternatives but here we are
I was about to touch some grass but thankfully Lemmy saved me.
You should still touch grass. It feels good 😊
well, if i was suddenly productive at work, my employer would be suspicious
What are we supposed to do, go “outside”?
Well from what I’m seeing as long as we don’t turn it into reddit we can enjoy a much healthier one, like working out vs doing meth.
I like Lemmy, but I feel like a better analogy might be doing weed instead of meth.
Well I did both weed and working out and I can’t say weed is necessarily healthy. I’m such much healthier working out and I used to be a constant daily stoner for 13 years lol. For me at least the experience is closer to a workout than doing any kind of drug as I’m actually socializing and interacting instead of doomscrolling. The lemmy communities have been chiller than a stoner on the beach lol!
ah, fair. I get your point - I still feel like Lemmy draws me in when I could be doing things in real life, and that will only get worse as communities grow and get more active. It’s definitely a more positive place though.
With reddit shutting down I imagined all the books I was finally going to read, that attic was getting organized, and I was going to start a new hobby…and here I am.
