  • When I used to have Reddit on my phone, I’d look at it as soon as I woke up. There was new content constantly throughout the day so I kept coming back.

    Lemmy doesn’t have the content churn, so I can genuinely just look once a day and spend an hour or so catching up. No FOMO! I much prefer it.

    However I do miss some of the niche subreddits that got reasonable activity on Reddit and absolutely zero activity here. They were my favourite part of Reddit.

    I’d take more activity in those niche places, but I don’t miss the addiction I had.

    Spez let me go cold turkey for a while. Thanks (fuck) Spez.




  • The other way to look at it is that

    1. I upgraded my prusa for years to every new model released for much less than the cost of a new printer. They provided upgrade kits for sale.

    2. I made my own enclosure, works great. Downloaded the parts and followed a guide. Prusa one looks nice though.

    3. My PSU had some potential issues 6 years after I bought it and they still sent me a replacement free of charge.

    4. The prusa slicer software has filament profiles built in that work perfectly on the printer with no testing. They are adding them constantly. There’s something nice about not having to do test etc.
