No ni na.
Don’t you want to read hundreds of comments with “Who’s listening this in [insert year here]?” or how that song was the favourite of a dead relative? Lame.
No, seriously. Those are 90% of the comments I read in music videos on YouTube. Another 5% are the lyrics pasted continuously.
I don’t usually watch videos because when I use Lemmy I’m in my phone and listening to the music.
I don’t want my music to stop so I can watch a video of 10 minutes with a list of Patreons, a paid sponsor, links to other videos of the channel and an actual minute with worthy information.
Me. Photoshop of “Saturn devouring his son”, by Francisco de Goya.
I made it in 2022 for Twitter. After that I abandoned my account. With the recent “X” news, I thought it will be fine to use it again after correcting the colours and adding a few filters, because the original was very dark and saturated.
This. Fines should not be fixed at a specific amount, but rather as a percentage of the total income of the company for a year. Just as laws are regulated according to technological advances, fines must also be regulated to truly impact companies and make them think twice before breaking the law.
There was a moment in my life when I realized I was mentally burned out because when I read books, my brain couldn’t create images anymore.
I analyzed my time and found myself in front of a screen almost all the time, without breaks. Due to my job, I’m already forced to be in front of two screens, so I started with my phone gradually, muting people on WhatsApp, Facebook, and Twitter.
It wasn’t enough, so I reduced my use of Facebook and only shared music videos on my profile. If I had any notifications upon entering, I paid attention to them at that moment. I abandoned Twitter a while ago, and I have no regrets.
Today, my phone doesn’t emit any sound or show any lights unless someone calls me directly. I only use it for some recreational time that I deem worthwhile, and I check WhatsApp notifications when I plan to change the playlist I’m listening to.
I’m still somewhat mentally burned out, but I genuinely feel happier.
Delete also the search history. After that, search non toxic topics, like live shows of her favourite artists, recipes, nature documentaries…
Spaniard here. I did some remote work with a North American company and in my profile my race was “Latino”. I tried to explain I’m caucasian but it was futile.
