    I’m continually surprised by how incurious people are in general. One of the first things I did when I explored Lemmy was click on the weird “+” button next to post titles, because I wanted to know what it did. And then I checked the settings to see what I could tweak.

    People don’t seem to do shit like this, and it baffles me.

      I think this is based on the way short form video has taken over as being what having-the-TV-on-in-the-background was for the baby boomers. And click-then-go-back is too complex an interaction for “noise” while having your brain off, while swiping from meaningless clip to meaningless clip in shorts or tiktok works.

      I always open settings on every app or website to see what I can change. This gives me feeling like this is something made just for me and I will use it for longer. Except KDE, this has way too many settings.
