Holy shit thank you. Reddit on Mobile was such an unusable mess to me that I’ve just been using old.reddit. Absolute game changer.

Still fuck that place, but now I can check in my my favorite old niche communities without getting cancer every time. Cheers!

Because this is the Internet, I feel like OP is gonna to get at least a few creepy DMs over this.

Fellow adult with ADHD here, welcome to the club! What you’re feeling is referred to as “imposter syndrome” and it’s one of the more pesky symptoms of our particular affliction.

Just knowing it’s a symptom of ADHD has been a huge help to me… When those thoughts creep in, I just remind myself how hard I’ve had to work to get here.

I know for a fact that I had to study for some of my licensing exams three or four times longer than some of my coworkers, for example. Those coworkers don’t know that, and I wouldn’t care if they did, but I know how hard I’ve had to work to get where I am and I’m proud of it.

Default UI, just on dark. Might look into photon though.

Nope, I’m on Mobile. Since all I really use lemme for is text posts, links to articles about things, and the occasional star trek meme, there’s just no added value in using a client for me. I have no interest in ad-supported software at all, so if there’s a decent FOSS one I’d maybe try it eventually, but unless there’s something as minimalistic as BaconReader, probably not.

Am I weird for still just using Firefox? I don’t see the need for a standalone client.

you’re breathtaking!

As a 40 something, I tend to find memes tedious, boring, and unoriginal. Like, to the extent that I actively block every meme community that pops up on my feed.

Except Risa. It’s my favorite community on Lemmy and makes me laugh multiple times per day.

You’re not lazy, you’re not stupid, and you’re not a loser. You just have ADHD, and once you figure that out things will get much, much easier. Hang in there.
