Wait, you're blocking porn, sports, and anime?

Those are the fun parts...

Blocking regional communities is one thing, sure.

I was partially joking, but anime, cartoons, sports, and some tasteful/ethical NSFW are all topics I'm hella interested in but don't get much play here. There's basically no boxing/MMA/basketball/football here.

Each day i feel too normie for this place

I'm not into the skinny models that most porn features and a lot of irl porn comes with a host of ethical issues,

Sure! Your reasons are valid and I'm not asking you to defend them.

I certainly don't like everything in any of those categories either. I've got slices I'm into, but yeah, the broad categories are def part of my interests.

It varies wildly from person to person, and my wife and I work so well as partners cause we have vastly different lists of what we consider exhausting.

Specifically for me?

  • Well-intentioned but unskilled people who insist on helping but don't have the capacity to do so or the self-awareness to understand when their efforts are counterproductive
  • Talking to my side of the family
  • Checking work emails. Not writing them. Just checking them.
  • Code-switching to talk to white people.
  • Watching shows or reading books I dislike just for the sake of completing them
  • Dealing with zoners in fighting games
  • Lingering in silent spaces.
  • Following recipes.

Talking to strangers? No issue. High intensity games? Let's do it. Complicated or arduous manual labor? Hell yeah.

Increased rates of neurodivergence on a leftist founded Reddit alternative?

It's less "venture to guess" and more "I'd bet my life savings on that being true."

Shit. I'm here with ADHD.

This makes sense considering who is here, but I would be very interested to see a Lemmy/kbin demographics survey.

Damn, that's fucking awful. What female-centric communities existed? I know what ones my wife follows on Reddit but not their analogues here

Edit:
Nevermind. The Reddit communities i found with analogues here are dead AF. Even the big pooular stereotypical topics like Fashion, cooking, weight loss, wedding planning, cozy games, skincare, hair styles, TV shows, romance books, dating, are all dead here.

Goddam, Lemmy users literally scared all the women away.

A real life example of "Stop scaring the hoes"

I am increasingly unable to take this place seriously.

"Scaring the hoes" is a catch all term for when the things men enjoy in private or with other men create environments that are inhospitable to women.

I've always heard it in a comedic context, said with nearly the same tone as when Eustace berates Courage the Cowardly Dog.

This? This the shit i was waiting for. Scorched earth, "burn the city down with you in it" typa shit.

Hell yeah.

So many bars to deconstruct and analyze

YouTube Shorts have been pretty good at recommending content from games i play (Street Fighter 6) or from martial arts/Boxing/MMA accounts that i am actually interested in

30 seconds is short enough for an SF6 round or a cool KO

With that said, you've asked this in the wrong place and are gonna get the most curmudgeonly answers from people who dislike videos, let alone shorts
