Social Media and chat (again)
Dec. 23rd, 2017 05:30 pmI've stopped using Twitter, but can't avoid seeing it everywhere these days. I don't pay attention to Telegram. I only barely pay attention to Discord, and even then, only really use it because it's how my mates send me things or prod me to get my attention. I don't use IRC or XMPP right now because I can barely focus on anything as it is.
I was hoping that having this iMac set up as a distraction-free envionrment would help me out. Instead, I have to balance using both my iMac and my MacBook Air because Discord is shit and doesn't have any gateway or method to run on Snow Leopard, and pretty much only one person still uses IRC regularly that I know of.
So rather than helping keep me focused, it's caused me to have my focus taken away even more because of juggling multiple devices, lest I upset someone again.
What am I going to do about it? I don't have a damned clue. Maybe I can find an excuse to just not use the modern web by smashing something? I really don't know.
