reddit is shit and makes me annoyed, twitter is shit and makes me annoyed, tiktok is shit and makes me annoyed, pure news sites are boring, cracked is dead, google doesn't work anymore, lemmy is only memes and news and fairly slow

i feel like i used to be able to sink into an activity on this machine, but now i just spend 5 minutes somewhere, the algorithm runs out of content, i get annoyed and go somewhere else, same process happens. i feel like i have amnesia, i used to enjoy this but i have no idea how.

I visit forums that are associated with my hobbies, like satellite forums, tech forum etc. I also listen music, and post NSFW content(when I can) in other platforms(not in Reddit).

Hobbies are the only thing that keep me on the internet, apart from news and memes.

Satellite forums sounds like a very specific hobby, but I can't quite tell which one:

forums where all the remote sensing / OSINT / geospatial nerds gather.
forums for satellite broadcast enthousiasts.
forums for discussion on space exploration and satellites carrying scientific equipment or actual satellite astronomical bodies.
forums that are called satellite forums as some form of jargon I am about to learn about for the first time.

What are people into these days?

TV satellite of course! Watching tv over the internet(IPTV, OTT) sounds good, but satellite tv is far better IMO(so far, wont last long). Anything related to new satellites, transponders, epg, FTA(free to air) channels and scrambled channels(when they are open), also there are linux boxes like octagon and vu +, where the users create images and addons. I don't know for USA, but in EU with a big dish you can get lots of things.

This week at 13.0E, they added some Bulgarian channels, but the signal was low?, people started wondering why they added them, since it already in another sat. Probably tests.
