Switching off notifications has been the best thing for me, it's so much easier to not get dragged down that path when you only know if someone has replied if you actively check, which is generally a lot easier to not do, than ignoring notifications is!

I will give reddit credit for one thing - being able to control notifications on individual posts (didn't have to be your own), and even individual comments was a great little feature, but in an all or nothing scenario, nothing has proven to be the better option.

As a browser-only user, I didn't realise Lemmy (and Reddit) apps give you notifications. It makes sense, but it also sounds like a bad idea to have them on.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I'm a a browser-only user too, and I'm not sure how you could miss notifications existing especially since you have to switch them off manually (possible on kbin, but my short experience on lemmy tells me you can't switch them off at all, which is why I don't use it), but yeah, either way, they're a terrible idea..

Oh I thought you meant push notifications (that remind you of dumb arguments when you're just going about your day). The ones in the Lemmy UI aren't as bad but I can definitely see the issue.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Ah, that makes a lot more sense, and you're right, those are definitely worse!

Me when I see something 1% relevant to my interests that I all-but-dropped due to very specific technical problems that nobody is solving and in some cases I may actually have a path forward (but it would be additional concessions and I also don't want to learn/use Blender).

The 1% in this comment is that I contributed (2) polygonal art things for OP 3 years ago (and anti-aliasing cannot be enabled for web builds and also a conflict with HDR glow). Them bones are me, but it's not quite ADHD (maybe SzPD plus other stuff with energy, not that it's relevant here).

Also it's ~6:30am (and I did not just wake up).

... what?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Not sure where you're lost.

Re-stated: The textureless 2D art I want to do isn't well supported. Similarly, I'm interested in 1 niche programming language and it is not well supported either (for what I want, at least). Trying to get both working together is even less likely. I think and talk about these sorts of problems more than I do things relating to them. No real projects.

Background: OP has a (free and open-source) digital card game (the therapy one). I made simple art (with simple animations) for 2 enemies, The Laughing One and Fearmonger.

Visual: Open this in a private tab (at least for me Imgur won't load links properly otherwise) eye animation. I made that almost 2 years ago (not used for anything), and the feature it uses is still a PR (not merged) and it likely is not performant enough to make art for a whole game (that uses MSAA) anyways.

Consider never reading any replies to the comments you make.

It's a comment, not an arguement.

To quote the poet:

When I talk about the social ills
Or the alcohol fix
Or the potent pills
Understand that I wrote it with a soul to fill
I have to sketch myself a new home to build

Which is another way of saying, you have to have an outlet for your bullshit, or it'll come out at inappropriate times.

You don't have a problem. You're just socially opinionated!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

I have a problem because I can't stop myself, especially if the other person is attacking my work (or community) :D But that's also compounded by my ASD.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Like I said, you don't have a problem! You're like my friend who is very openly opinionated!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I see what you are doing there.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Yup, helping out a fellow lemmy!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

No you don't have a problem.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

I have the exact same issue. It's so upsetting when you tear into someone who really doesn't deserve it but you just can't let it go in the moment
