Good god I knew it wasn't going to go well but I didn't think they'd crash and burn it THIS bad.

The bar was on the floor and they still managed to somehow clip underneath it through the floor, end up in some backrooms-esque dimension only to trip on a banana peel and land face first in a pie.

Mean there were times when I was logged out of Reddit and was trying looking up something on mobile and the constant badgering to install the app just had me tell it to flip off and I looked elsewhere instead. Lot of people tend to do things based on how convenient it is for them and if they go ahead with this, sure maybe some will download the app but a lot of other people will just get fed up and stop, particularly if they were using the browser version so they didn't have to deal with the app in the first place.

I'd imagine nsfw instances will show up sooner or later, mean if theres ever a more determined group of people its horny folk haha

Ahhhh I know the pain bud, I've struggled with that myself as well, in a better spot than I was though still a bit of derp. Felt like I was a complete snoozefest of a person and that I was pretty unlikeable, depression is a total bitch like that.

Don't mean you're a boring person though, like it seems you enjoy a nice mix of stuff and there ain't no shortage of folk on here who dig things like programming, comics, etc as well on here and folk are pretty chill and welcoming from what I've seen so far too.

Credit where credit is due though, its a really difficult thing trying to live your life with depression hanging over you, but hey you've still gone and made a post and are starting on anti-depressants, these are some pretty awesome big steps even if they don't particular feel like it right now :)

Binary people when they see a non-binary person (they can only comprehend 0's and 1's and the discovery of other numbers tears at their psyche)

Plus if all those furries working in tech just went poof, then the internet would probably collapse!

But we need the sacrifices else how will line go up? :(

Think its gotta be THAT moment towards the end of Disco Elysium (if you know, you know, I don't wanna spoil it for folk who haven't experienced it for themselves yet), it made me cry but it was a happy cry so I think it counts

You may stop for now but the seed has already been planted mwhahahaha evil thunder sounds

Mean its not the only thing thats contributing to having me feel that way, but I am feeling pretty burnt out and I'm kind of just going through the motions at this point. Bit of a nasty feedback loop of lack of energy/motivation/whatever that leads me to not do much beyond the same bleh stuff.

Know its not a good way to be but its pretty much all I can really do at the moment :v

I noticed it earlier too, I chalked it up to it dealing with a big spike of traffic or something but I don't know what was really the cause

I wouldn't necessarily say excited myself, it feels more bittersweet. On the one hand it like sucks for folk on a personal level who might have really enjoyed being part of a certain community, or all the work people have put into moderating, posting content or their work on a third party app is just going up in smoke in a snap.

But on the other, it feels like sweet sweet delicious karma for the stupid bullshit Reddit's leadership have done over the years and getting to see the birth of something new and better to come out of the ashes. Hopefully this place sticks around because its felt like a breath of fresh air honestly.

Mean to me it feels like when this gets brought up in an article, its another one of those moral panic sort of things that go "look at what the kids want to be when they grow up, society is in decline!" as if they didn't have dreams of being a movie star or something when they were young. I wanted to be a astronaut despite my fear of going on rollercoasters lol, kids love dreaming big regardless of how actually feasible those dreams are.

And I can see why being an influencer would be appealing, getting to feel cool and popular, the perks that come with it like free stuff, having it revolve around an area they are passionate in like gaming for example. Plus considering that to those kids who might be inspired to become an influencer from following one, they've probably also gotten the sense that it must be one of the best jobs ever since they've probably only gotten to see the good, fun, positive sides of the job as thats usually the stuff that gets posted, but not so much with the bad side of it. Burning out is a fairly common problem for one, especially with a big pressure to keep pumping out content super regularly.

Personally not for me though, the idea of fame just doesn't appeal at all to someone scared of people like me and I'm burnt out enough as is haha.

Smol me "I don't get whats the big deal with everyone just liking boys or girls, I think they're both pretty neat!"

Slightly less smol me at the age of 14 "Oh they have a word for that, neato!"

Me right now "You know I ain't fully vibing with the being a guy thing but being a girl doesn't seem to fully fit either, hmmmmmm"

Guys I think my general indecisiveness has spilled over into my sexuality and gender identity what do? :c

Nah, I was pretty much just using Reddit with a "its the least bad and more tolerable for me compared to the other social media sites" mentality so I didn't feel a strong loyality to it. Using it til it either imploded or something better came along, or both in this case!

Pull a little silly and just keep slighty moving the buoys further up the river and see how far they can get before someone notices

It feels weird he's actually gotten turfed out now, with it feeling like he was involved in some new scandal every other week. Felt like the heat death of the universe could have happened and he'd still be hanging on somehow.

My dad joke variation of this is to say...

"I may have a drinking problem"

"I don't know how to hold the bottle!"

Its gotten a few groans of anguish but then that seems par for the course with my humour :p

Helldivers is probably the one I've spent a fair chunk of my life to. Excited for the second one thats coming out soon, though they do seem to be taking a different approach going from top-down shared twin stick to 3d so I'm curious how that will affect things

I deal with this and its a pain, like if I'm not using my fingers to keep track when doing simple maths or having a calculator to aide me, then it becomes a bigger slog than it ought to be ughhhhhh
