as in, the sites you always type unconsciously and hover on throughout the day. ideally something more beneficial than this
Good question… as I open up lemmy for the 70th time today.
What are good places to frequently check / 'be' on the internet besides lemmy / reddit / social media?

Better than Reddit at least

Find a RSS aggregator that you like and add the RSS feeds of websites you enjoy going to. I’m assuming most have the ability to search websites based off topics to help you get started.
The feed will show you every update those websites makes automatically.
There’s no comments or frivolous things. Just headlines, images and text of the webpage.
It’s a nice reprieve from social media.

Pornhub

But the last time I actually looked up a porn performer who seemed cool, it turned out she was a raging transphobe who would want to kill half my housemates. :(

Fark.com is a really great news agitator and community
It’s similar but different to Lemmy and Reddit in many significant and interesting ways
givesomefucks@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Fark.com
Time is a flat circle…
I never went on Digg, but Fark is what I used pre-reddit.
AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Me too. After years away, I poked in on it. It was a Saturday, and the Caturday thread looked just like the last one I had seen, many years before. Seemed strange.

news agitator
I feel like that was autocorrect, but it’s hilarious.
gregorum@lemm.ee 1 year ago
There was also slashdot back in the day, although I haven’t checked it out in a while.

News for nerds. Stuff that matters.

Hackaday.com is great if you are into hobbyist electronics! I also spend a lot of time on YouTube.

Telegram.
I know I am an apologist, but there’re many good groups of simple news and knowledge but also goot groups of trading and discussion.
Also it’s one of the last bastions of freedom. Especially loved by people in repressed countries.
Orionza@lemmy.world 1 year ago
How do you find groups you might like?
Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 1 year ago
Either by word-of-mouth, or the indexers of groups.
Like telegramchannels.me/groups
Most of mine are local-only groups for smallads or zigbee/smarthome-discussion
A_Chilean_Cyborg@feddit.cl 1 year ago
telegram is social media.
Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 1 year ago
It has social-media-features nowadays. But in its core it’s just a messenger
NightAuthor@lemmy.world 1 year ago
YouTube, I learn quite a bit there. Also Discord, and lemmy

girltwink@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Discord is where i went. It’s annoying that it’s less indexable, but that’s also protected it from malicious advertising.
Jordan117@lemmy.world 1 year ago
For me, MetaFilter, ResetEra, and Feedly (RSS reader).
Blamemeta@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Youtube.
Facebook for boomer memes, clubs, and the local facebook group for my town.
Reddit for porn. Ain’t nothing quite like /r/nsfwcyoa
craigslist so i can fantasize about what id do with various vehicles in varying conditions
