The Synapse drama is actually game over for Element/Matrix IMO. Move your friends to DeltaChat. It's not a pain in the ass, it's really snappy. XMPP is better for replacing the Matrix chatroom here for instance. I don't have the energy to explain the drama or why. Go to the main Delta Chat developer's fediverse page for more info

I'm not sure how robust it is as I have used it little, but Movim (an XMPP social media service akin to ActivityPub) seems like a much better option than Mastodon, various blogging services, and most IM apps. Really easy to have encrypted social media and then have a publicly shareable link through it. Check it out

XMPP is cool but Delta Chat is the good shit

Loath as I am to receive advice from Estonians with overwrought writing tendencies, that really seems spot on. It doesn't have any unnecessary flourishes, Twitter references, or imitation of political savviness. It sounds like something the writers actually have experience with.

Iodine in most regular multivitamins seems to help a lot if I take it consistently. I don't have random mood swings like I used to, so I can tell when it's just work kicking my ass. Not saying buy anything crazy or expensive, apart from a kilogram of pure potassium LMAO. Can also just eat spinach, beans, potatoes.

I wish you luck in terms of stressors in your life fucking off, to make this as easy as possible. Protect yourself from freaky things if you can. Know us strangers on the internet are invested in your wellbeing. I am just happy to see someone even trying to be less miserable. I have seen people walk away from car accidents without any desire to kick the liquor. This is you doing this, and that is badass. 👍

Not the Rome book 💀💀💀🙏😭💀💀💀💀💀👀💀💀💀💀💀

I don't have any relevant advice for you other than to make sure your general health is in tip-top shape to keep your mood up as you are quitting. Also keep yourself occupied in a public space. Due to the ongoing respiratory disease crisis this can be a tall order, but find somewhere to study. Just study anything you remember grabbing you.

Get some potassium powder and take it every morning. It can come in a salty form that's nice for eggs (oof just remembered nevermind about those right now) or oatmeal. Focus your whole diet on protein, fiber, and omega-3s. Vitamins actually really really work. Specifically B12, C, magnesium, zinc, and potassium are noticeable the first day. The FDA restricts potassium supplements to a pathetic, tiny amount for some reason. You need literally 10-40 times the amount in a "potassium supplement" - dietary sources are best but I love money too much.

I've never been a drinker, but I know this is what makes being sober feel like shit as a baseline for most people even in the absence of stressors. There is no amount of money I would take to go back to how I felt before I got this nailed down. It's a completely different way of being, it just takes a week to really kick in.

I hope you can succeed and remember that punishing yourself does nothing and is easy. A bold but methodical approach will change your life.

Is this guy good or is the video just good? Alt media youtubers are a land of contrasts. Does he host Scott Ritter and Pepe Escobar? Please say he doesn't.
