  • It’s comments like this that make me think I don’t have ADHD and I’m just a bit slow.

    My therapist says I’m likely ADHD and I align with a lot in this thread, but this description is about 1000% more dramatic than my day to day life. I guess it’s all a spectrum, but I’ve never felt like I’m living in a fog, I’m very very aware of all of the things I’m fucking up, but my mind doesn’t tell my body it’s worth fixing yet.

    I never “forget” to finish a task, I remember that task needs to get done every 5 mins after I leave it not finished and it pains me to look at it every time I walk by it. But there are more important things to do. Like scrolling Lemmy or IG.




  • Simply put, I need to buy groceries.

    It’s not that I will have issues learning or researching, it is that I don’t have the time too.

    If the barrier to using Linux is needing to spend time troubleshooting and researching to do simple tasks, I just won’t.

    So far this thread has been very enlightening to me, I’m excited to try something new. But my OS is not my hobby.










  • I feel like all of these fediverse platforms are going to suffer from the same issue.

    I searched up peertube and clicked on the peertube link. No where was there a “recommend videos” feed or “upload videos” or “create account” and the first link to a peertube platform is a cliche “rebellion” something or other.

    These things will never see mass adoption if they aren’t approachable to the casual browser. It sucks, but the average user would rather give their data to Google or watch 25sec of ads before each video then try to figure out fediverse. Especially since when you do figure it out, there isn’t any good content yet.
