  • @GizmoLion lol, just a perspective from a dev who has loved a few projects for years, and abandoned a few others because holy shit they’re just not worth my time

    i can see this happening in kbin & lemmy app-world where everyone picks “Ammenides for the Kbemmyverse” and the guy who puts 14 hours a day obsessively into “Omonaia for Cute Kbin” sees just like 3 users who decide to demand loli features and you don’t like lolis but you entertain them bc they’re your only users but after months of being annoyed by these fuckers you just press alt f4 one day and realize you’re being unhappy for a community that’s as alien to you as a “caress homeless people when you pass by” hobby club, and decide that enough is enough, and go raise tortoises in a Caribbean island cuz that’s all you’ve always wanted to do but couldn’t because you were making loli stickers for a bunch o lolicons cuz you wanted just a tiny bit more attention that you couldn’t get in real life due to being isolated in your room 24/7, therefore becoming hostage to your own seclusion-caused feedback loop of depression, loneliness and low self-esteem.

    yes, i find suspiciously-specific incoherence funny

    I’m half kidding too, I actually do exactly what you say. I had some trouble with this in the past when I started getting into nihilism, solipsism, egoism, moral relativism, etc., and it’s all quite a bother to see yourself as a meaningless speck dust riddled by biological problems.

    nowadays yeah, less philosophy, more meditation, more looing at all the nice things, experiencing, living, being. Gotta be grateful our brains suck at keeping too much information active at the same time. You can just play a game, talk to people and eat something delicious & forget the existential dread you felt a couple hours ago.

    The more I strive to find meaning in life, the more I lose it, and the more I realize I am but a walking poop machine who stresses over work to make money to buy food to eat to make poop. There is nothing in life but struggle and poop.
