N-gated Hacker News<p>Oh look, another <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/YouTube" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>YouTube</span></a> video pondering the mind-boggling mystery of how long an <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SSD</span></a> can hold your cat videos when it's off 🔌🙄. Spoiler alert: it's still not forever. But hey, if you're looking to kill some time, why not test new YouTube features instead? 📺✨<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx3Y5x6uzKQ" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">youtube.com/watch?v=rx3Y5x6uzKQ</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Storage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Storage</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CatVideos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CatVideos</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TechMystery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TechMystery</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/VideoFeatures" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VideoFeatures</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TimeKiller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TimeKiller</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/HackerNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HackerNews</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ngated" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ngated</span></a></p>

maxmoon 🌱<p>My experience of avoiding <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodon</span></a> for a whole week 💪 </p><p>I figured out that timelines are really bad. They trap you in this weird slot-machine-like game where you pull the lever over and over again. </p><p>Timelines are polluted with interesting topics and unimportant posts. A perfect mix for gambling.</p><p>You barely hit something good, but if, you get a small dopamine boost, which holds for a few seconds and as soon as it's gone, you keep pulling the lever over and over again, until you wasted a lot of time or fall asleep being exhausted of scrolling.</p><p>There is nothing social in timelines. It's only an invention of big tech corps to keep you on their platforms to consume more ads and get more data to sell.</p><p>Even if timelines are in order on the fediverse and not manipulated by algorithms, like those from <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/facebook" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>facebook</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/twitter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>twitter</span></a> or <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/instagram" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>instagram</span></a>, it still has it's flaws. </p><p>A good solution would be to only show the content of a person I follow, who uses a specific hashtag I follow, too. Both should match, not only one of it. The timeline would be very short and not as long as it normally is, which is a problem, too, because if someone posts something at a wrong time, the post goes into the void without anyone seeing it.</p><p>Why are <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/timelines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>timelines</span></a> a thing in the <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fediverse</span></a>? </p><p>Wasn't the fediverse something without ads and for the people and because it tried to be social?</p><p>Why do we have those <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/addictive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>addictive</span></a> and <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/notsocial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>notsocial</span></a> mechanisms here?</p><p>If someone knows a better system or tool, which is content based and more social, please let me know.</p><p>btw. my <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/productivity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>productivity</span></a> went up the last week a lot, because the very first thing I did in the morning was something useful, like working in the garden, working on the next youtube video, reading a book or learning. With social media I would've wasted the time scrolling and that's only what happened in the morning! Imagine the rest of the day being as productive as those mornings...<br> <br><a href="https://veganism.social/tags/socialmedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>socialmedia</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/addiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>addiction</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/distraction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>distraction</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/timekiller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>timekiller</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/trapsoftheinternet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>trapsoftheinternet</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/doomscrolling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>doomscrolling</span></a> <a href="https://veganism.social/tags/wastingtime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wastingtime</span></a></p>
