A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason

NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

You’re a lot more likely to get a conversation here, or at least have someone read what you write.
It’s like Reddit was before everything was so huge. Whatever you say there gets buried before you even have a chance to have any kind of discussion.
And I’ll tell you something else amazing that has happened for me.
It’s like dropping Reddit cold turkey has changed something in my brain. I’m dropping a ton of bad habits like it’s nothing. I was a chain smoker this time last month. Recently I smoked two and a half packs in one day and I was really upset with myself. I said, “no more.” and I’m down to 4-8 cigarettes a day. It’s like it made me realize that I have control over myself.
I’m gonna try to go this whole day here at work without a cigarette. At this rate I will have quit completely in no time.
