- g00gler 2y agoI could be wrong but I think the other effects of smoking are worse for quality of life as you age and are way more common than cancer. I knew a lot of lifelong smokers. I believe only one got lung cancer, didn’t die of it, but all that lived long enough had oxygen tanks, at least periodically, later in their lives.

- ImaCake 2y agoSmoking anything carries an increased risk of developing COPD. It’s not super important what plant it is.
- TechDebtDevin 2y ago> 10% of smokers develop lung cancer. < 10% of all lung cancers are found in non smokers. The risk isn't really comparable with smoking tobacco.
