Comment on 'FUCK SPEZ': Reddit Users Unite to Turn r/Place Mural Into a Protest
Urbanfox@lemmy.world 1 year agoMe too, I’ll engage for around 15-30 minutes then go and do some writing rather than spend 4 hours doom scrolling.
I’ve legit got so much work done it staggers the mind.
I stopped using Reddit completely on July first, and in that time I’ve got a reflective log completed and submitted, a report on disruptive fintech completed a week early and submitted and now a mini dissertation completed 2 weeks early.
It’s almost as if spending my time doing coursework is better than freaking out trying to finish it and submit to turnitin 30 seconds before the deadline while praying the connection doesn’t fail.
Anyway…

We all use social media in different ways. For me, I use it primarily as a relatively mindless activity I can engage in when my brain is too tired to do something that I actually care about. For example, at work I often write comments when I am stuck or feeling burned out, and taking the time to rest in this way helps my brain recover and often after a while the solution to my problem pops into my head and I can proceed.
