Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

should we be discussing reddit less? (beehaw.org)

Seems like a good portion of the activity in the communities is reddit oriented. If the goal is leaving/hurting reddit, it seems we should be continuing on like it doesn't exist, instead of continuing to drive interest to the site. Thoughts?

like all hot news this will be old news.

what will be difficult is all the FOMO, what is reddit doing? whats the top news over there. Im caring less and less.

im intrested in how you're doing instead beehaw, are you okay?

I do find myself almost reflexively returning to Reddit at times but I ended up unsubscribing from like 80% of the subs I was in including everything that has a relevant community here. That's really helping me care less about what is going on there and I have been consistently interacting more on here than there for a week now.

Plus, everyone has been so nice. Admittedly I have not explored too much further beyond Beehaw.
