To be fair, every platform is an echo chamber. The only differences are to what degree.

You had me in the first part. Lmao.

loyalty free music

I would correct you, but technically paying royalties is, to some very loose degree, a declaration of loyalty, even if just to legal frameworks. Haha.

It is by no means just you. I really hate how everything has to be so flat and shadow-less nowadays. I'm not at the point of shaking my fist at clouds yet or anything, but I really miss skeuomorphism in general!

Just be aware their newer phones are hot shit. It's the older phones that got the reputation for durability.

I personally don't like it as it makes me uncomfortable because I'm not a guy, and it makes me feel a bit excluded.

That being said, I'm fully aware it's rarely used in a gendered way anymore so I'm don't generally say anything. It's just how I feel. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Most people, however, are not that careful about partitioning their accounts (myself included, frankly).

I'm pretty damn terrible at this, so I can't give you any real advice, but Imma try dammit:

I've had a pretty rough life myself thus far, I've had serious struggles with suicide, depression, addiction, being abandoned by my family, being homeless, and so on, and one thing I can tell you is this: the absolute simultaneous curse as well as blessing that is & always has been absolutely central to human motherfucking existence is the phenomenon of hope. It always exists, even when you think it doesn't. Even when you don't want it to. Hell, especially when you don't want it to.

Keep going.

That's all I can say on that. I have no fucking clue what advice to give nor frankly do I have any right to. I'm not in your shoes. But you are a human, which sounds innocuous and obvious but in my experience that automatically means you're stronger than you think you are. You've survived this long, haven't you? You may feel like a shell of a human being but you've still persisted. I don't care what anyone tells you, I don't care what you tell yourself. That's your proof of your strength right fucking there.

Just keep going.

Feel free to complain the whole fucking time—hell, I do every goddamn day—but keep going. Even if it's just to spite existence, keep. going.

I don't know you, I've not met you, but just from what you say, I can tell you one thing: I do believe in you. I mean that, dammit.

I'm the same here as I too use the Fediverse and LibreWolf, but we shouldn't kid ourselves about the former: by the very nature of how the Fediverse works, it is honestly pretty damn terrible for the purposes of privacy. Unless I'm missing something, which mind you is certainly a possibility.

Exactly. That's my situation too. I've found great furniture at Goodwills and (at the time) had the money to buy it, but I didn't have the room in my car for it, nor did I know anyone who did.
