I wanted to get into IT (primarily computer networking), but I unfortunately could not deal with the customer service aspect and all the corporate bullshit that came with being in the field. Plus, it's nigh impossible to get a job in the field now, even after getting a certificate and "doing my time" working at a call center (hate that shit.)

Yeah, honestly not worth it.

What I like:

Being in a smaller community of friendly like-minded people.

What I dislike:

The constant reminders people post that the world is on fire and that there is not a fucking thing I can do about it. Lemmy (or at least the instance I'm in) does not seem to have any obvious filtering features. I end up needing to take a break sometimes.

Edit: Getting ahead of it before anyone says anything, I think it is important to post about current world events, and I outright encourage it. I simply just don't have the greatest headspace and can only take so much of it.

I have used CachyOS and I can confirm that it is decent. I might give Bazzite a try next though.

Fucking hate it when people gatekeep smh my head.

Alt: Crudely put-together image titled “Gatekeeper Starterpack” which consists of multiple pictures including one of a fence gate, a person in a security guard outfit, a security guard putting their hand forward to motion ‘stop’, and a security guard drinking coffee. Text on the image says: Restricts access to warehouses, factories, gated communities and the afterlife. May or may not be asleep. Always asks for some card or something idk. 300 mg of caffeine and counting.

I've been using Boost for Lemmy. While it is unfortunately only available in the Google Play store, it still has served me pretty well. I had previously used a different version of Boost back when it supported Reddit, but uhhh, we all know how that went. (Fuck Spez)

What did you do as a child that would be considered dangerous today? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[–] GlennicusM@beehaw.org 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Stuck a housekey into an electrical outlet to pretend I was driving a car. Not sure how I didn't die, honestly.

Is This How Reddit Ends? in c/technology@beehaw.org

I would probably sooner (insert any obscene idiom here) than use the official reddit app, but your work is still commendable.

Special ed kids, what's it like? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

For a couple years at least, it sucked. It felt lonely in retrospect because most of the other students in the class were nonverbal. Any attempt to socialize with the teachers just lead to them telling me to "mind my own business". The teachers were also just assholes in general.
