I wear Fruit of the Loom hipsters (I’m a woman).

Personally I like them bc while the waistband has elastic in it and has stretch, it’s not literally an elastic waistband like some underwear.

The material is really soft and comfortable to wear all day long.

I still have “other” undies for special occasions, but day to day I’ll rock the hell out of some Fruit of the Loom granny panties. I’m married and my husband doesn’t care what he pulls off me, so I’d rather be comfortable lol

Either Cash Cab or Deal or No Deal

I love watching Cash Cab and trying to guess the answers, and I have a DoND app on my phone and I’m not too shabby lol

As someone who smoked Camels for years and is now just as addicted to vaping, there are no benefits. Zero.

When I smoked cigs, I stank constantly. Even if I sprayed perfume or had a mint. My fingers always smelled.

I did 12 straight years of choir, but now I have a much smaller vocal range. I’m not as active because I get winded. Now that I vape and have constant access, I get cranky after like 30 minutes of no nicotine.

My blood pressure is higher. I can’t be on the type of birth control that gives me less side effects because my smoking makes it higher risk.

I’m raising my risk of cancer. I’m spending a fuckton of money on flavored air.

There is literally no positive and I wish I had never touched it.

I’m non tech.

I just work as essentially an administrative assistant in a real estate-esque office making $20 an hour.

Just a married woman in her 20s who is sick of Reddit’s shit.

first was an ipod touch, when i was in middle school i think?

favorite so far has probably been just my iphone, i started with a 5 and now im on a 12 pro max with about 6 months until i can upgrade

i’ve loved the evolution of ios, and doing the betas and seeing how far it’s come i still remember when the first iphone came out when i was in like 6th grade and my friend got one, and we thought the most simple shit was the coolest most futuristic thing we had ever seen

i really do love my macbook pro though. can’t say it’s my favorite cause i’ve had an iphone so much longer and i have my whole life on there, but using windows my whole life, then trying a chromebook during my Pixel 3 phase, and then finally getting a macbook has been wonderful

Thank you

I’m getting tired of seeing those comments, it’s giving a little bit of condescension, and tbh I don’t want to see lemmy communities just turn into subreddits with a list of 30 strict rules you have to check your post against before submitting

It’s so unbelievably easy to just scroll past, I truly don’t understand people who don’t want to see it and could just scroll, but instead expend the energy to open the post and type out a comment instead

I know this technically isn’t the right community, but is it hurting anyone? Could we view it as an opportunity to help someone today? Idk people are so into their own little world.

I do, but not nearly as much as Lemmy.

I used to go to reddit for everything. To scroll aimlessly, just to look at aesthetic photos, to read stories…I even had a multi reddit for text based subs, and a third party app on my watch so I could read text based reddit posts at work.

Now, I only go to reddit if i need the resources of a specific sub (earlier i had a question about an app so i went to their sub to browse and see if there was any advice) or if i’m cross posting content to lemmy to get my communities going.

when i just want to scroll and see what’s new, ive been coming straight to lemmy every time.

i’m really trying to interact more too.

ok i thought i was going crazy, that’s the most frustrating thing

i only ever use regular search and image search

if i want shopping results i’ll look at walmart or amazon

if i want video results im just searching right on youtube

i don’t need a million different tabs

Anything at Daiso really. I never need it but I just…need it.

Yes. I have a husband and a 16 year old autistic son (unfortunately he is very low functioning and does not really help with any chores because of that, despite his age).

My husband works 5 to 6 days a week, usually 12 hour shifts, sometimes if there’s a 6th day it’s 8 hours. I work 8-5, 5 days a week, but also have about a 45 minute commute one way.

Husband also has a large family and we have a pool, so right now at least one weekend day is usually spent hosting them for swimming.

My best strategy right now is that if I walk by something that needs doing and will take a few minutes or less to complete (think throwing away some trash, tidying the coffee table, grabbing all the dishes in the room and moving them to the sink), then I do it right then. It’s not perfect and it doesn’t take care of everything, but I’m hoping if I do it more, I’ll be able to sort of stack things and do two things at once that need doing and then cleaning will become part of my routine.

But honestly I’m mostly here to get tips because my ADHD brain needs help.

Exactly, I don’t think we really have any say in whether that happens.

Those channels are just random people trying to monetize content people post for free. Considering that, I personally hope we don’t see any of those channels pop up for lemmy, because I feel like the entire point of lemmy is to move away from monetizing the internet, so if people start monetizing content on here, I feel like it could influence the type or quality of content posted, and then we just become another reddit.

and i feel like lemmy could be a better place than reddit. but not if monetization starts creeping in.

Pulp Fiction is one of my favorite movies of all time, I can rewatch it at any moment

Overall it’s not really fucked up, it’s not THAT crazy of a story, there are just some fucked up parts.

On my macbook I just go on firefox and use the lemmy.world site

on my phone i do have a bunch of apps installed but im pretty much exclusively using memmy, i just check in on the other ones to see how development is going

Also Meta wants to join the fediverse with Threads.

A lot of it is just people talking about their social media ex, but it IS part of a larger discussion about taking the internet back from corporations.

Mainly for niche communities that haven’t gained traction here yet, and for my city’s subreddit, which does have a community here but it’s completely inactive so far.

I created like 3 communities and I’ve got around 20 subscribers on each, but no one is posting so I’ve been using reddit here and there to cross post content from the original subs to kinda just have something there as an example.

You can do that??

I like the clean design of iOS, and I like being able to Apple Pay my whole family if needed cause we still share like a phone bill and stuff, so it’s easier to Apple Pay than bank transfer or download an app.

Plus I like Apple’s credit card and now I have their savings account too…

At this point other than Lemmy I mainly just use instagram.

I do have Facebook to keep up with a few family members still, but a lot of them are on IG as well. But I keep my IG a lot smaller cause I post more casual everyday stuff on there, weed stuff and whatnot lol.

I still have twitter cause I’ve been on there on a bunch of accounts for like 15 years at this point and it’s hard to let go, but I really don’t tweet much anymore, just go on and retweet some stuff and then leave. Elon has completely ruined it, and I feel like no one sees my stuff anymore, or maybe they don’t go on there anymore either.

I used windows for years but i’m Mac now.

Mainly switched because I have an iphone, apple watch, and airpods so it just seemed to make sense.

It does hurt browsing steam now though. CONSTANTLY finding tons of games I want to play and then they’re windows only. ):

used a chromebook for a while, that just sucked all around.

Exactly, this makes no sense.

It doesn’t hurt lemmy to have other options for mobile apps. It’s like a phone case. It doesn’t affect how the phone works, you just picked yours because you like it and it’s comfortable to use.

I could use the lemmy mobile site, but memmy has swipe gestures and themes and a much nicer UI, so it makes it much more pleasant to browse lemmy. It feels more intuitive.
