Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!

How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.

Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)

If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].

Rules:

1. NO POLITICS

Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.

2. Be civil.

Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...

Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.

5. No trolling.

This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.

Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I actually prefer Δ8 to smoking a joint (lemmy.world)

I get a lot of sass from my buddies when we're hanging out and they're passing a joint while I pass and prefer my Δ8 vape (or gummies).

I used to be right there with them, often bogarting the hell out of it, but ever since I officially became old, I just don't enjoy getting "stupid" high anymore; I'm such a lightweight these days I can't even just take a small puff without it being more than I want. I'd much rather have a light head change and still be mostly clear headed.

I'm not a square, just old and happy with my less intense buzz :)

Personally I used to enjoy a dab of d8 more than I would enjoy smoking weed, but since I've had access to cheap d9 concentrates I haven't really gone back to d8 at all. I like that d8 doesn't come with as many side effects like tingles in various parts of my body and anxiety in general. But I prefer the experience of d9 concentrates much more and I've come to appreciate flower more as well. I don't understand all the hate Delta 8 gets at all because it's hemp derived and extremely similar to "regular" THC and most people I think just misunderstand it.
