    Reddit (now Lemmy) singlehandedly made me as un-creative and unproductive as I am now (more accurately it’s my tendency to get addicted to stuff like this led to this, but please let me have this)

      I have to get all of my (non money earning) work in the morning before even opening my phone. As soon as the social media gets going my motivation to do anything creative and engaging drops.

      I’ve tried focusing on creative/artistic communities to try and inspire myself…but it just doesn’t work. I think the passive intake of media ends up scratches the same itch in a much less fulfilling way.
