  I think it will become easier and easier to generate content tailored to individuals and all that noise will make it harder for human created content to pierce through, until it becomes too impractical to create and distribute content. Then it will take some kind of quiet revolution where everyone starts rejecting all forms of technology as overstimulating, and move towards simple communication devices to try and connect with each other.

  That’s fair, it was based on a similar browser called Arc that had ambitions to reinvent browsing. That one was chromium based though and maintenance stopped when they wanted to create another AI powered browser. Then the Zen people recreated Arc as an open source browser based on Firefox. I was already used to Arc so Zen was familiar.

  I think there are a lot of benefits to the way the UI is laid out, give it a try you without changing any defaults for a week or so, you might get hooked.

  What is the issue with multi monitor setups? On my Mac and Linux machines I have no issues

  Please try Zen browser. I can’t go back to any other browser since I switched

  It feels pretty silly to protect UI design to that extent. It’s as if I started designing a website for a client, someone passing by took a screenshot and showed someone my design. Then I sue that person for… not keeping design secrets? I dont understand how apple can prove any damages besides maybe being owed the ad money on that video. And even that is a stretch, and not worth the lawyers’ time in my opinion.

  I think it’s good that you gave it a name, it’s the first step towards acknowledging that it’s not rational thought and can be ignored safely. There’s definitely nothing wrong with you in the sense that you’re not crazy, but it sounds like you might have a lot of trauma and CBT should help. But it’s a long process and sometimes its two steps forward, one step back. Just stick with it and see if it improves.

  I’m not at all a professional and you don’t have to listen to my advice, but my wife has had a similar issue and she called hers a name too. It helped her a lot over the years to realize how she could turn that voice down. What really helped her though was to cut off her family, as they were the ones that gave her this voice after all. She had a lot of trauma related to family.

  Hope that helps, or at least makes you feel better about it. This voice is not shameful. You’re just human and coping with life.

  Ironically, from what I can see, the younger generation understands even less about computers. It’s like everything is so simple to use (smartphones, consoles, tablet) that they no longer need to understand the technology behind it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there any way to reverse degrowth of the niche communities on Lemmy?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s the same as any other platform. Right now the content in small communities is limited, but over time once there is a sizable amount of content that newcomers can get referred from or go through, Lemmy as a whole will get more traction. Since the Reddit exodus happened I definitely feel like Lemmy has grown a lot and I’m here for the long run.
