Alternatively, it becomes a dad joke when you start kidding.

Same thing happens with me with a home instance of lemmy.world.

Thank you anyway for taking a look and commenting! It’s interesting to hear your perspective, and I’m glad you could at least learn about it as a concept.

Thanks for your comment. The practice and results may vary from person to person. It’s certainly not a miracle cure, but the general finding is that when our bodies are not ejaculating, they are not constantly needing to produce semen which is a very nutrient- and energy-intensive process. As a result, we have more consistent levels of energy and a more stable emotional state.

I came here specifically because I want to leave reddit

If you don’t like it, just downvote and move on. Why is this so upsetting to you?

In my case, the page keeps spinning but the post is not submitted, regardless of reloading the page or waiting for a long time. There was one case where I cut down significantly on the amount of characters in the post and then it posted, but I have been unable to replicate this.

Same. It would be good to fix this

I’m thinking of doing the same, just waiting on the data download request to go through. I wish I could delete it immediately though…

Same though, I feel this has given me the push I needed to quit Reddit entirely. I’d gotten control over pretty much all other social media so I honestly appreciate this in a way.

I like it this way much more. I never felt comfortable commenting on Reddit, but something about this basic, forum style makes me feel actually comfortable contributing to the conversation. It’s a new feeling but really nice! I’m thinking this will help me quit Reddit and spend less time on screens as well. I’m having a hard time figuring out instances etc and how to connect to them, I’m mostly just using this instance and its communities for now. I’m sure I’ll figure it out eventually
