I used to browse r/all/rising and sometimes peeked at /new. It was made somewhat bearable because I used rif and filtered out subreddits like crazy.

I just checked my rif settings export. I had 906 subreddit filters.

(And one domain filter: battleforthenet.com.)

Off topic, sorry, but I’m curious: Did a bоt copy your comment? Or is this some sort of Federation-related-weirdness?

This gif has always bothered me somehow. I think the transition is too ‘good’ and it makes it feel uncanny… Something like that. I’m sure the quality doesn’t help.

Anyway, what’s happening in 3 days?

I assumed OP would be willing to say it it was “just” that. This being the Internet and all, people admit to way weirder stuff all the time.

When I was a Boy Scout, we often had kids who would refuse to go. It was a whole thing that we had to check on. (Along with asking everyone how yellow their pee was.)

I remember one guy was in tears on the hike out, and it turned out that he had faked out the scoutmaster by taking a walk with the TP and shovel, but not actually gone. Poor kid was barely able to walk, but kept insisting he couldn’t void either.

I only learned later how serious it can get if prolonged.

My best Reddit experiences were where Reddit facilitated meeting people “IRL”. I found my first D&D group on Reddit, made 3 great penpal friends, scored a couple dates, …, and one romantic relationship.

I really don’t know my worst… A couple times I let people get under my skin, but I eventually got good at blocking people.

I switched to Obsidian not too long ago.

For my needs, Joplin was a good open source alternative.

Between the two I went with Obsidian because, while the apps are closed-source, the data is accessible. All your notes are just stored in plaintext (with markdown) as simple files in a directory structure.

Joplin, in contrast, uses a SQLite database which adds a layer of complexity.
