I mostly gave up all social media with the advent of threads and now only look at hacker news. It just seems like there's too much stuff being presented as interesting information that's not really at all. HN seems to at least have things I find truly interesting approximately daily.
- naillo 3y agoSame. This and youtube blocking adblock (causing me to just exit the page) has been a boon to my productivity.
- meiraleal 3y agoYoutube blocked adblock? It still works for me using firefox on both android and linux
- yellow_lead 3y agoAs someone "extremely online" I find that Reddit, Threads, Twitter all post a lot of regurgitated or previously posted information. It's nice the HN prefers calling that out, either w/ a "previous discussion:" comment, or pointing out the year, i.e (2018) in the title.
