reddit is shit and makes me annoyed, twitter is shit and makes me annoyed, tiktok is shit and makes me annoyed, pure news sites are boring, cracked is dead, google doesn’t work anymore, lemmy is only memes and news and fairly slow

i feel like i used to be able to sink into an activity on this machine, but now i just spend 5 minutes somewhere, the algorithm runs out of content, i get annoyed and go somewhere else, same process happens. i feel like i have amnesia, i used to enjoy this but i have no idea how.

    I’ve been doing more stuff offline these days. I’ve been making music that about 10% of people actually like, which is a pretty decent ratio, I think ( https://songwhip.com/thethreeleonards ). between music and board-gaming and TV the hours fill up.

    I’ve been on The Internet since 1995. I, too, used to enjoy this. There is enjoyment to be found, but most of that is in finding people I can sincerely connect with, which is difficult. Treating The Internet like it’s the Mirror Of Erised is not the way to happiness.
