Interesting, are these well-known communities? Of course the Amish never use computers to begin with.

- mensetmanusman 5y agoWell, the communities belong to the oldest continuous organization of mankind :) E.g. https://encourageandteach.wordpress.com/2015/02/20/the-friday-five-lent-in-the-digital-age/ https://encourageandteach.wordpress.com/2015/02/20/the-frida... https://www.catholicapostolatecenter.org/uploads/9/2/4/6/9246931/a_digital_lent_guide_v01.pdf https://www.catholicapostolatecenter.org/uploads/9/2/4/6/924...
- Thorrez 5y agoI'm slightly embarrassed I didn't think of that, since I'm Catholic and have given up reddit for Lent in the past... I guess I misinterpreted your previous comment as an entire community giving up the same thing together, rather than each individual choosing a specific thing.
- mensetmanusman 5y agoI could have been more clear: there are a subset of community members who band together and encourage each other to fast (digitally)… I’m also a Catholic (took RCIA @ Harvard), and incorporating regular fasting has been awesome :)
