Hope everything’s alright.
It’s not a dopamine harvest every morning for you folks? Why not just delete the app?
GET UP COME ON GET DOWN WITH THE SADNESS
Just leave it in another room.
For a week or two you’ll reach for it because you’re conditioned to do so, but you’ll eventually break that weird urge.
What the hell are people doing on their phones lol
Checking their bank balance
Keyword filters and curating your youtube algorithm is your friend.
Thank you! Somebody telling me to “curate my YouTube Algorithm” is an excellent example of the sadness that is dispensed
Its not so hard. If you see something you’re not interested in, use the “Not Interested” button in the video options.
If you’re constantly seeing channels you don’t like, use “Don’t Recommend Channel”.
Just rawdogging the algorithm is like speedrunning the path to depression. You have the power to change this aspect of your daily life. A few extra taps here and there can have a massively positive effect on your day-to-day.
Honestly I deactivated history, which disabled the feed. It felt bold and overkill but actually I don’t miss it one bit. I only look for channels and content I like, my YouTube screentime went down 90%.
Would it be okay if I crosspost this around to some of the comms like
!digitalminimalism@lemmy.ml
!dumbphones@lemmy.world
!nosurf@lemmy.ca
or !singlepurpose@lemmy.world (single purpose devices)I feel like folks on those comms would appreciate this meme and they really don’t get much traffic ☺️ (or you can cross-post if you’d like, I just try to support smaller comms I like when I see stuff that might be appreciated by them :)
Absolutely, I don’t think you need permission to post a meme elsewhere. That’s what memes do 😅
The image isn’t loading. but with that title, if it’s not Battlestar Galactica I will be big sad
Oh No, you will be sad twice 🥹
I swear the title is a BSG reference
I have bad news for you 😅
