Ask HN: Where else do you spend time on the internet other than HN?
As you become more familiar with internet you kind of advance through sites and habits and grow up. I've ended up on HN as the most interesting site currently, but I am starting to look for more. I'm not personally a programmer but like the adjacent discussion here sometimes. Thanks

- harryquach 1mo agoI have graduated to not using the internet when at all possible. Its mostly been hijacked by large corporations whose only goal is you spending as much time scrolling as possible.
- CM30 1mo agoYouTube, Reddit, Discord, my own websites and forums, and various wikis and news sites for hobbies I'm interested in. Generally most of the sites I use are volunteer run and operated (mostly) non-commercially, so enshittification is unlikely.
- gaws 1mo ago> forums Which ones?
- ex-aws-dude 1mo agoHonestly, gravitating more towards books and less internet IMO you can only get so much out of bite-sized content, if you want real understanding you have to engage in deep long-form content
- chistev 1mo agoWhat kind of books do you read? Second question, what are some of your favorite books you've read that you'd recommend?

- davedx 1mo agoI hang out on various entrepreneurial Reddit subreddits, both to get an idea for what people are building, problems they are having, and occasionally post about my own pain; and also to promote my own product. Every now and then I'll lurk in subreddits that are just stuff I'm interested in too. I've also gone back to X/Twitter quite heavily (but trying to limit usage and avoid posting in anything politics related). It's hard not to get sucked into it. Then occasionally sites like the Guardian for general news.
