I’m getting pretty tired of the obvious “Big tech company bad, Twitter dead, Linux good” bias that Lemmy seems to have. It’s definitely decreased my usage over the last week or two. I guess it kind of comes with the territory given Lemmy is a more complicated platform that will naturally attract more tech-oriented users, but it’s still getting super old seeing the same flavor posts every single day.
Comments and Posts both seem to be on the rise
I think this trend will continue for a bit as more mobile apps get created and become more popular.
A shorter than 40 hour work week would be the biggest draw.
According to a study conducted by Zippia.com (1,000 full-time workers), the average worker is only productive for a little over 4 hours per day, with productivity capping out at 6 hours. This article on studyfinds.org references another 2,000 employee study done by OnePoll (no link given) that says “A new survey finds office workers are at their most productive by 10:22 a.m. each morning — but start to slump by 1:27 p.m.”
Letting employees who commute to the office every day work 30 hours per week instead of 40 would be a HUGE draw for a lot of people. Less traffic on the commute, less “fluff” time where you’re not doing anything, time to take care of personal errands during the week while businesses are still open, and I’m sure other benefits.
Same except for Apollo on iOS.
Glad to be here. Everything feels less shill-y and spammy. No more 500 of the same shitty comments in every thread
I look forward to reading many posts here.
This is my problem. I want to use Lemmy over Reddit, but there’s just not a diverse enough population to find the content I want about niche topics. Bundle that with the same 3-4 “tech company bad”, “CEO bad”, or “USA bad” topics on the top of my feed every day and it’s pushing me away from Lemmy tbh. I signed back into my Reddit account for the first time in months yesterday.
