I'm bored.
Toilet break
I'm shy but I still have the human desire for social interaction. Written communication with anonymous strangers strikes a good balance between avoiding shyness triggers and fulfilling that desire to be social.
(Shy probably isn't the right word. I have no problem giving a formal presentation to a room full of my coworkers, but I won't initiate an informal conversation with a coworker in the break room.)
Fuck spez
Poor impulse control
I came here because of the reddit strike. I am one of those idiots that used the official app anyway but i did not like the way they handled the change. I changed to lemmy and after a couple of days I deleted my reddit account. I actually don`t remember when I had this much fun exploring a part of the internet. I just love the community. Sure there could be more content and especially discussion in the comments but I take the slower content generation over the toxic cesspool most large online communities have become any day of the week.
Because fuck spez that’s why. Deleted my 10+ year old mod account back when they killed Apollo. Haven’t been back (and don’t plan to either).
Morning routine.
My discomfort while being bored
Doomscrolling
I'm not.
You mean at the very moment? I'm waiting for my gf to come to sleep. In general? Boycotting Reddit and I still like to get my news curated
💩 break
Fediverse is a healthy alternative I don't need to feel bad about. I feel shameful and don't want to talk about it when I use Reddit, which I stopped using anyways.
Reddit doesn't work on my phone and my PC takes ages loading Baldur's gate 3
Definitely not procrastinating at work, honest
Because Reddit got boring af. And annoying. Spambots everywhere because of API shutdown.
Cuz I got nothing better to do.
bus ride home
Same reason I was on Reddit at work before. I’m taking a dump and need something to do. And now my bowel movements are free of corporate interests
Because I used boost for Reddit and I wasn't going to use Reddit without it. Now I just like the concept of Lemmy.
Trying to reinvigorate !superbowl@lemmy.world and !anime@lemmy.ml .
SuperbOwl migrated from Reddit but nobody was doing anything with it. I try to post at least one owl a day. Currently I'm posting one owl rescue a day for each US state so people can visit and support them in person. Today is #11, Hawaii.
Anime communities seem so dead in Lemmy. There was finally an active thread last weekend, so I wanted to try to start another one this weekend.
As in right now? Sitting outside in the city center on a Friday night watching people having fun with friends and trying to feel the same vicariously through them.
Don't want to appear staring so I'm typing on my phone.
died on counter strike. Waiting for next round :D

Checking my Lemmy messages. I love going back and forth with people in comments.
Reading leftist memes and LGBTQIA+ basic tips for like daily life. Oh and the Autism/ADHD community tips, too. I'm pretty burnt out on commenting on news posts, and hope to make more original posts around culture and tech stuff.
because I'm taking a shit
I prefer not to say.
I don't even know
read some articles
Because it’s an outlet for my non-grumpy, cheery personality.
During the day I can be too serious, mostly because I don’t feel safe to express myself fully in public. So I use Lemmy to have some fun, leave a silly reply if I feel like it and post some nice images.
I haven’t done this in years. Before, I spend most of the time just lurking around. It feels good to just let go and be myself with strangers :)Rougly 43 seconds before seeing this post, I was looking to some really cool artworks and photography pieces, on dedicated communities.

Apollo stopped working and Voyager scratches that itch.
Wasting time while I wait for my girlfriend to hand in her notice 😂 she got a better job 👍
Gotta get those stimmies
It was during the mini-exodus, gotta start somewhere
Wasting time and I fucking hate reddit
Interest over much how it's picking up steam in relation to the alien site. Pleasantly surprised!
Can't sleep and I need a distraction
I don't use reddit on mobile (and use it much much less on desktop with RES, Old reddit, and an adblocker, I still like the computer oriented subs)
Spez stabbed baconreader in broad daylight so now I get my dopamine fix through Liftoff.
On the bright side, with smaller communities I have cut my time on lemmy in half from what it was on reddit to the point my wife has even brought up how less frequently I am staring at my phone.
Why am I on lemmy right now? Because it's Friday so I am doing as little work as possible. I think I'll go make some eggs.
Beans
Because I was banned from all of Reddit for ban evasion in a sub I wasn’t even banned from. Not coincidentally, it was right after speaking out against the the treatment of 3rd party developers over API use.
Checking my communities.
Figuring out whats up in the world. I open the all feed and sort by top in past 12 hours. Thunder client ftw.
Scrolling when I should be sleeping
While also debating myself on sharing some art I recently made
bored, slightly hungover. just scrolling through.
Kbin, but I’m bored and procrastinating
Looking for world and culture news in bed before starting my day
I'm driving a school bus. (just kidding)
I'm having a coffee before I drop the kids off at the pool.
Because Reddit is just crap anymore.
My daughter and her netball team are having a session at flip out. It's 4pm and I want to go home. I have things to do. We've been out since 8am.
Just passing time. That's why I'm currently browsing.
right now? always
Just finished for the week and catching up on my social media.
Because I'm waiting on someone from headend to get to a ssag, so I can trouble shoot why this light level is so low.
i should be writing
Morning coffee.
dota game coordinator is down
to help grow the fediverse community, help kick start critical mass
Caught up on discord.
News, soccer, and some memes.
Waiting for the rest of Reddit to follow. [Drums Fingers Impatiently]
I'm in the carpark at the shops and I got distracted after picking up my phone..
To answer the question asked in this post...
Because my normal iceshrimp instance broke and im waiting til i get home to swap it to akkoma
Procrastinatin'
Because Reddit destroys all free third party clients!
Post nut clarity?
Because my roommates dumbass mother keeps waking me up after 5 hours of sleep and I'm too livid to fall back asleep
Just taking a break from work and wanted to browse a bit while I am relaxing.
on my way home
Waiting on the bus.
You ever spent a day working on a personal project where you absolutely blazed through the work and are excited about jumping back in the next day but being so excited you can't sleep and just browse. Yeah
Because I can 💪
Anyway mostly to screw reddit.Bored and sleepy. I'm so glad it's Friday.
Because my direct is very wordy and I'm maybe not the best boss.
I rent a server and like to self host stuff.
bored in class
I'm not.
It's Friday afternoon and I am experiencing a Brain Full Error.
I am in hospital and bored out of my mind. I keep scrolling and scrolling and...

Work is lame and this passes the day along...
Just woke up and wanted to have a leisurely scroll.
Commercials on tv
Hoping to see news that the US government has finally decided to stop the economy from melting down.
I keep being disappointed…
Like you, we’re all bots.

For some fun times
Today I'm scrolling and cleaning up my feed, banned chap traphouse and a few toxic commenters enjoying my first month on lemmy
well I was on lemmy to avoid redditors
Because your mom is busy.
I really like the UI of the jerboah app
