Why create new news community? I'm tired of getting banned by crazy lemmy moderators under made up reasons for posting news articles (likely reddit subversive operation).
Also most of news communities are empty - this one will be full of content.
So i'm now creating my own community. everyone welcome, let's tear reddit down together.

I had to delete TikTok this weekend because of this. The algorithm was doing way way too well at constantly rage baiting me and keeping my screentime at impressive records. Detoxing from this case has been legitimately difficult. The conspiracy theorists were going to send me into psychosis

Addiction. Genuinely. I quit vaping earlier this year and I guess scrolling short form content was how my brain filled the need for constant dopamine hits

Genuinely not sure TT and social media are less damaging than smoking.

First, congrats.

Second, I got revanced on my phone and it lately has this weird quirk where it has an unstoppable pause every fifteen minutes. Really helps me refocus on what I really gotta do.
