During 2020, I spiraled into depression and stayed home browsing reddit way too much. I got some pretty strong political opinions during that time. Thankfully, I decided to block all the subreddits that I wasn’t directly interested in (most of the default subs were blocked). This was great for my mental health. Since then, I’ve seen friends fall down their own rabbit holes but unable to pull themselves out.

Politics plays a core part in our lives but we shouldn’t let it consume us or let ourselves boil in anger over it. So far, Lemmy seems to be more about thoughtful discussion rather than throwing insults. It’s refreshing. I look forward to the day that America’s political landscape is less polarizing but I’m not sure how we get there.

I wonder if a porn company could host a server for porn. They could even limit the video links to their site so they can rely on their existing moderation tools while also promoting their site. It’s not the best solution since a company is controlling the server but it might be kinda work.
