  • On the one hand, I’ve gone to the trouble of setting up a Lemmy instance. I’ve invited some users. If they stick around, I’ll definitely keep it up and running, and keep using it myself. That doesn’t mean I can’t use Reddit.

    The point of the protest, in my opinion, has to be that if they accede to our demands, we’ll do something they like. So if they make API access cost something reasonable, then it would only make sense to reward them. Otherwise, why protest at all? Why wait till now?




  • I would say, given what you’ve described, one thing you need to do is be willing to fail. Convince yourself that you can say something to someone without knowing how the conversation will end. Because it kinda sounds like that planning idea is how you get stuck inside your head. You can’t sit and plan conversations all day. You have to actually have them. That will involve experiencing failure, and learning from that failure, and trying again. That’s normal. Everyone does it, whether neurotypical or anywhere on the spectrum.

    Having conversations is how you get better at having conversations.
