Idem, ma considerando il publico medio del fediverso, almeno c'è qualche possibilità che i contenuti finiscano per essere più simili a Vine che Tiktok.

The more the IT world takes this dystopic approach the more I turn into a fucking luddite.

higgsboshark The thing about knitting is it's much harder to fear the existential futility of all your actions while you're doing it LIke ok, sure, sometimes it's hard to believe you've made any positive impact on the wortd. But It's pretty easy to believe you've made a sock. Look at it. There it is. Put it on, now your foot's warm Checkmate, nihilism.
cheskamouse This is a powerful positive message.
pluckyredhead I'm literally reading a book right now (Burnout by Emily and Amelia Nagoski) that says this is scientiically sound.
There have been studies done on rats and dogs where they develop learned helplessness in the animals by giving them impossible tasks. Eventually the animals stop trying, even when the task stops being impossible. (.e. put a rat in a maze with cheese it can't get to until it develops learned helplessness, then put the cheese somewhere it can get to it and it won't even try ) But once they show the animals they CAN do something - i.e. physicaly moving the rat to the cheese-the learned helplessness goes away.
No one can move you to your cheese for you, but the book says DOING something - which they define as "anything that isn't nothing" can help. Make a food. Work in the garden. Clean a thing Do a favor for a fiend. Call your elected officials.
Knit a sock.
If you feel overwhelmed by existential despair, do something. It doesn't have to be big It just has to be anything that isn't nothing.
I think people often underestimate the potential educational value of senseless memes. For example, thanks to Spiders Georg, literally every teenager on Tumblr has a reasonable grasp of what a statistical outlier is and the sorts of problems that outliers can introduce into a native analysts. There are grown adults who don't get that - I deal with them on a daily basis.
"memes have educational value" actually statistical error. Average meme teaches 0 facts. Spider Georg is an outlier and should not be counted.
