  I don’t get it. I work full time and have no problem wasting my life I mean time here…

    The notion of “summer reddit” went hand in hand with the “moms basement” sayings, and even “touch grass” in a way:

    Namely all of them ignore the simple fact we all have the internet in our pockets and can be chronically online and actually out in the world doing things at the same time.

      Nah, having computers in our pockets just allows more advanced bedrotting and removes the requirement of leaving bed.

  What is your default sort set to?

  I’m set to scaled and subscribed by default which mostly gets me posts from the last 0-6 hours. But for some reason Lemmy on FF keeps logging me out so I get to see the default all with active sort and it’s a wildly different user base.

  There was a post the other day in like Linux memes about case sensitivity in the file system. Early on the post was mostly the Linux die hards who love their case sensitivity. After about 1.5 days it showed up in active and all of the newer comments were (probably normal people) bashing case sensitivity. It’s almost like R*ddit to a degree where the general consensus in the comments can change over time as different users start seeing the post.

    I sort by new a lot so it definitely could be that actually. Good point.
