yes! I mean pathological demand avoidance, I literally forgot there is another meaning to the acronym 🤣

It’s like it was hit by a train!

Florida Man: Challenge accepted! It’s going to be legendary!!!

While I cannot think of a better decentralization example, the lack of source code makes me worry this solution would not satisfy the open source software (OSS) criteria.

Not true, I could set up a WordPress blog and start writing reviews. As long as it stays a niche thing I share with a couple of friends online, that “review platform” won’t be gamed or flooded by fake reviews.

My point being that closed “publishing” instances can be reliable.

I feel you. There would be times when I would prefer ordering a delivery to serving a plate of food I have already cooked.

Been struggling with eating disorder for the past few years, and the last year I have been trying (without success) to keep a healthy diet. Ordering delivery online is the biggest issue for me.

Buying groceries that I know I am going to throw has helped a lot. The shame of throwing rotten veggies has motivated me many a time to start cooking whatever is left before it’s rotten, I view it as trigger to cook. Also, not having groceries can be a barrier to cooking.

I have trouble accounting for all the effort required to prepare a dish. Tasks like washing the dishes, buying groceries, cutting vegetable, etc take time and energy. If I don’t plan for those, I will get tired at some point and completely give up cooking.

When everything seems too hard, I try to do something small. Usually, this is washing a couple of spoons or glasses. Sometimes this is enough to trigger my fixation and get buttload of work done. Because, this is not consistent my trick is doing often with zero expectations so I don’t get discouraged.

Now, I am trying to constantly build excitement for cooking. It’s a new experiment, but the idea is that if I have triggers around me that will remind me I want to cook, it make it easier for me to cook. I have installed a mirror on my living room (I don’t like my shape right now, and that feels motivating somehow), and next I will pick some posters to hang around the house.

Thanks for the question, I hope I am able help even the tiniest bit.

omg, I am terrified of this happening to me. I have been looking for a specialist since March. It’s so fucking hard to trust someone when most people are pretty much ignorant of ADHD.

I mean look at the curves of that beach!!

For personal machines, I use rivers.

At work we use superheroes.

For hobby projects, cute 4 letter words (it’s a challenge), for example bubu and alia.

General popularity is not a good metric IMO. If I like a community, then it shouldn’t matter if a million people like or it’s only me and my cousin. If the community likes the content, I want to see it.

It’s trust between the members of a community.

However, weighted sorting is not a solution too, upvotes counts are not linear. Maybe, quantile sort?

yes! yes! yes! I have the same problem.

My suggestion is to add a view with subscriptions ordered by the selected criterion (i.e. new/active/hot/top) and below each community there is vertical list with posts from that community sorted.

This would allow see what’s up with the communities we follow and then jump in those communities if we find anything interesting.
