  • I never feel bored. The closest, I guess, is feeling lost and not motivated for anything or stressed and jumpy between things.

    In those cases or more when I don't "have anything to do" in general, I open Lemmy, or YouTube, or watch anime or some series, read manga, or watch documentaries. Depending on motivation and mood I open games or do open source or personal project work. Sometimes open specific news or test websites, or my RSS feed accumulator. Or do whatever else is open to do.

  • A lot of things.

  • Are you blue?

  • I have textarea cache browser again installed (on desktop) for those rare cases where I want to recover text input.

    I wouldn't attribute a fuckup on your end though. Just really unfortunate and depressing. Caused by someone else.

  • I woke up to yet another day

    I washed my dish towels with a yellow orange bag and now they're super bright yellow lol

  • I've been for quite a while.

    After some frustrating interactions on Lemmy I've dabbled back into Reddit as well again.

  • Does a shirt worn upside down as shorts count as pants? A long sleeve?

  • You don't consider Lemmy to be social media?

  • NSFW Deleted

  • geizhals.de - comparison portal, and then go by offer and ratings, and which I know and used before

  • More choice, individual and grouped control, while still being - by default - connected between instances and platforms which would otherwise be splitting if people and critical mass.

  • Bending in gymnastics helps bend the rules in PRs.

  • Systematically the same. Different weight shift (views and interests). Smaller userbase also makes it a bit different, but will become more similar with more users.

  • You can accept people as people without accepting their positions, claims, or views.

    You can be mindful of when to engage in comments or not.

    You can shift your mindset from arguing with a random stranger/bigot to defusing their talking points, or not letting them stand when you feel they should not.

    People are more than one thing. You don't have to like everyone. And you certainly don't have to like all their aspects like the limited view one can see from their online profile or comment.

    I don't think Lemmy is fundamentally different from Reddit either, in terms of how people behave, and how it will develop with more users. You just have more choice regarding choice of instances and communities, and blocking.

    If you want to become more accepting of other peoples view points, be mindful of your own prejudices, automated thoughts, classifications, and emotional responses. Consider perspective switches, or considering the value of different views in general.

  • There are different kinds of cults. Cult is a different thing from religion. It doesn't belong on the same axis. But we can continue the thought if we define it as religious cult.

    The scale is about excessive binding, control, rituals, restrictions, belief systems. If the left is the extreme, then towards the right we have weaker restrictions upon the belief system. The belief becomes weaker, and the beliefs do not have to restrict other and own people's activities and beliefs.

    Religion in the middle makes no sense. It should be the label on the scale. "Religious extremism" or similar. Maybe narrow, restrictive, totalitarian.

    I don't know specific terminology for the right side. Maybe open or unrestrictive practice of religion.

  • Käse (Germany)

    I wonder what it's called in Austria

  • So many things. Most things seem designed against humans instead of for them. Most are designed to supposedly look pretty, when I'm someone looking for content and information. Those are often hidden. Add to that malpractice, misleading, and lying.

  • Isn't leaving it in the nose even worse? 😱

  • I do. Not very often, but not super rare either.

    It can help when I'm miserable, as a form of emotional release.

    Mainly on anime for me, I guess, largely because that's what I watch most. I don't think I've felt that emotional on other film media.

    The most recent anime that touched me was Ave Mujica: The Die Is Cast.
