I also noticed how my social media usage (even on Lemmy and Mastodon) is consistently declining, I haven't opened the clients I use for either platform in days (or possibly more than a week). It's bad because I was pretty invested in the fediverse, but it's good because now I can actually do something productive, or even go outside.
It's not bad... it's actually healthy. I think that feeling that you must post on social media isn't really good for the head.
Go on social media when you feel like it, but it's best if the default is to not use social media.
Good point
Agreed, this experiment should be able to last by itself without feeling obligated to post something. If that's the case then it's failed.
Same. Good stuff.
