I’m just really bad at forming habits. I know what I need to do, I can come up with routines or ways to do it, maybe even do it for a couple of days. But I just can’t seem to ever get habits I want to form to last for any length of time.

Whoa, I had no idea that was a thing. Horrific!
I loved Thinking, Fast and Slow. I really enjoyed how he included a lot of the questions and tests he used so you could answer them as you read the book.
All of my favorite clothes are thrifted!
I’ve been borrowing ebooks from the library, and having one checked out on my phone helps with the doomscrolling.
Not being on Reddit has definitely improved my mental health.
More reading: books, magazines, newspapers. Also trying to get more exercise.
As little as possible.
My Nalgene has been with me for at least 16 years and still holding up fine other than the logo/printing wearing off!
Right? I haven’t signed up for Threads, but I definitely wouldn’t want a feed of random stuff the algorithm wants to show me, instead of people I actually want to follow.
Really enjoyed his book as well. While all the tech stuff was cool, what really impressed me was how much he was able to do by just acting confident and working the people around him. Like calling up companies and asking for information (with just enough insider knowledge) and getting what he needed. The social aspect was really interesting to read about!
I’ve been using Memmy for that Apollo-like experience, ha ha!
I’ve been trying to comment and post way more, too. Feels nice trying to grow/participate in communities instead of just getting lost in a sea of rage bait. So far I’m liking the slower pace and kinder tone here!
I’m really enjoying the vibe of Lemmy so far! Still figuring out how to effectively discover communities on other instances, but I’ll get there eventually.
At this rate there won’t be any mods left to respond to the admins’ feedback request!
The niche subs are the ones I’ve missed the most, honestly. There were some really great little communities on there!
I started noticing a drop in the quality of some subs after the blackout, before the third party apps shut down, too. I suspect a lot more subs are that way now.
I felt like a Reddit old-timer and I have (had?) been on there 12 years, ha ha! Seventeen years is wild! I don’t have much enthusiasm for staying/going back, either.
But hey, they’re “leaders and stewards” of their communities now, and not the landed gentry!
Is reading technically considered consuming content? Fun and it’s a pretty cheap hobby if you have library access or go to used bookstores!
