You should still touch grass. It feels good 😊
well, if i was suddenly productive at work, my employer would be suspicious
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.
I decoded to start my own community so thats a cool time suck
yeah i told myself I'm gonna get off social media and here i am...
if its any consolation, the relatively low volume helps limit my engagement here. I refresh the page, recognise most of the posts, and then realise i need to get off social media.
