I have now deleted my accounts, but there was at least one time that I was browsing reddit and got really bored, so I opened a new tab to check out reddit.
I looked at the front page posts and was like, "Oh yeah."

Oh I have a literal ton of stuff I could/should be doing. Haven't had any would for a long time though
That scrolling the same apps loop is way more relatable than most people want to admit.
The 4 apps I jump between:
Connect, Voyager, Raccoon, and Summit.
Ever had a conversation with a person about two different topics at the same time but each topic is being talked about in a different app, in real time?
My wife does this.
Our text DMs are about the kids.
Our family chat DMs (Zulip, which is a open-source version of Slack/discord) is full of memes.
(Zulip, which is a open-source version of Slack/discord)
Did you do this to brag, or to avoid the FOSS Enforcement Patrol?
Mentioning his wife was the brag part.
Me and his wife use signal
Ah force of habit. I just came from a conference and I had to explain Zulip a dozen times to people.
Please keep your dirty hamburgers away from my virgin pumpkin

Hobbies: They're great.
Great, now instead of just being bored, I get to manage three servers and two dozen public-facing services that I have to maintain for a growing number of users, along with the physical servers themselves, as any cog in this machine may break and burst into flames like a house of cards... and still be bored with the added stress.
Yaaaaay, hobbies...
You may have chosen the wrong one.
This hobby would be significantly better if it came with a six-figure salary
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's called a "job".
You'd think yeah :P
Ever thought about shitcanning all of that and just folding some paper cranes?
I'm in too deep. Save yourself!
What services?
I run basically all my stuff through docker containers, and have...
NAS:
- BentoPDF
- Clam-Shell (discord bot using clamav)
- FreshRSS
- Haven (discord alternative)
- Kitchen Owl
- Linkwarden
- LubeLogger
- MeshCentral (for me to admin systems)
- Nametag (relationship organizer and visual map)
- Owncast (streaming, for myself)
- Plex
- Radicale
- Red (discord multifunction bot)
- RustDesk
- Snipe-IT
- Uptime Kuma
- Vaultwarden
- Wallos (subscription manager)
- YourLastFM (for myself)
ThinkServer - Proxmox:
- Debian 13, running BOINC
- Home Assistant
- Windows Server 2022, running Motor Town dedi
VPS:
- American Truck Simulator dedi
- BeamMP dedi x7
- Duplicati (for backups)
- FiveM dedi
- Minecraft Bedrock dedi
- Wireguard
I have stuff offline like a Satisfactory dedi, and the docker container for Euro Truck Simulator is broken for whatever reason... and stuff that is running for admin purposes that I won't list since security and all that (and a couple 'bare metal' services too). My users are family, close friends, and members of my discord/haven gaming community that I have brought in over the last few years.

Y'all have money left for hobbies?
one of my hobbies is reading. Yarrrrr... it's free :)
Well. There's always humming, I suppose.
Y'all have time left for hobbies?
Yeah I have a 4-day work week. Not with full pay of course, just 80% as well.
I mean, it would make for an interesting day.
Hell yes, get rid of anything that's an algorithm.
If you can't run out of content on the platform you're on, it's a bad thing.
Use youtube clients that follow users
Browse text platforms that let you follow communities.
TT, IG, /all, and shorts are where your brain goes to die.
Everything that's on your phone has an algorithm. It's like saying I don't eat things with chemicals in it.
Technically correct, but I think you know what the above user meant.
recommendation algorithm
though i reckon lemmy has one too, just a more transparent one

Do Americans call minced meat "raw hamburger"?
Or "ground beef" or "hamburger meat"
One thing we rarely if ever call it is "minced" or "mince."
To my American mind that suggests it's been cut into tiny pieces with a knife, not ground through a grinder.
Mincing is something you do to an onion, or in stiletto heels and a knee-trappingly-tight skirt.
this guy doesn’t mince words
Or mince around.
I feel like "hamburger meat" implies the inclusion of seasoning whereas "ground beef" is literally just the meat
Largely yes. Sometimes "ground meat."
