I don't think most people realize how much they rely on auto correct when they are on a phone. When I switched to a new keyboard because I like local hosting my voice recognition the auto correct was initially way worse and my typing speed went down by maybe half.

I was pretty much only seeing people from my instance in comments. Or people that they followed. Joind an explicitly leftist instance because it had more charecterst to play with and it felt empty.

Oh holy shit is that when I tried mastodon it felt like a ghost town with people only posting and no one engaging in discussions?

That's true of a lot of colleges.

I'm going to push back because as society exists now there are a lot of cities I have been to where the graveyard is the most easily accessible green space. I don't know how weird it may be but sitting with the dead in the quite separated from the surroundings was one of my favorite things to experience. I'm not a religious/spiritual person and it was very helpful in connecting to the people who died before I met them.

Getting off 4chan and talking to people you used to go to school with for advice on what to do would probably be a start for OP.

as someone in gen-z who didn't have a ton of limiters on my screen time. Gen alpha is fucked. I was only constantly exposed to the internet starting at 8 and I can only imagine how muchvworse it will be for someone who had a screen in their face since before their brain could form memories.

Also way too many corps don't have up to date information on their website and their twitter profile has more recent info. The lack of that on any FOSS/decentralized social media means that some people just have to keep a centralized account open.

oh for sure. Wasn't being serious, dysphoria is there and makes me basically think of existing as a man as hell and finding out that's not everyone was interesting to say the least.
