Hey thanks! I gave up Facebook, Twitter, and the like many years ago. I browsed Reddit endlessly until the API fiasco, switched to kbin for a bit, then gave it all up for a few months. Got bored one day and found my kbin link was dead, so I switched to Lemmy and just realized I've been getting hooked again - thus experiencing this same vicious circle.

Time to give it up again and get back to real life, my morning routine has definitely been slacking. Maybe I'll find a podcast to keep up on the latest while working out.

Yeah I've had to reinstall the ol' app timer on my phone to keep the lemmy usage reasonable.

It's called getting a hobby Don't know where to start?

Just think of times when you probably thought "I wish I could do.."

Don't know how to start? Clearly putting the phone down would help
