The amount of interesting and unique content is on a sharp decline. I post things that I find interesting that I don’t think most people would have found before me, but there isn’t much interesting being reported by mainstream news, so most of the time I don’t link because it’s boring as hell and probably completely false anyway.
It’s an election year, so you’d think the shills would be ramping up, but there just isn’t anything that they post worth reading, or they aren’t out in the numbers as elections past. It seems that 90% or more of users are feds, or foreign intelligence assets, and I’m not interested in their fear porn and propaganda.
Couple this with the fact that most people have the intellect of a potato, and those that are bright are dying like flies or otherwise stymied by baffling medical problems, and we are reaching a point of no interest, no new content, and no interesting dialog: the apathy singularity.
This is a microcosm of society, and I find I have little to say to real people lately. They are brainwashed, anxious, fully occupied with the new latest thing and so few are worth talking to that it’s more annoying than fun to meet new people.
Good day other /s/Colorado poster ;) Yes, I'm trying to do the same as well as posting in other subs or comments on things that are either interesting or frustrating/annoying enough that I feel like it is worth a response. I started with mostly just /s/Colorado but now post to quite a few other subs.
I just need to get my website(s) back online and start posting some more OC and not just news or what other people are doing.
Who knows. Maybe we are just seeing "dead internet theory" in action. No more real content. The majority is clickbait bot bullshit (now mostly AI bullshit) that no one actually cares about and the bots are clicking on bot links where other bots are creating content from other bots.
Garbage in, Garbage out.
That is why I mentioned in another thread that maybe ill make an effort to post more to /s/DIY. I made a somewhat large but simple post on how to replace a outlet without zapping the shit out of yourself. It was posted as a comment, maybe ill re-post it as it's own post since some people might be interested in it.
I would enjoy reading about that type of thing. I am interested in how things work, how the average home-handyman can fix these items and how they are made. I am an amateur metalsmith and enjoy watching master smiths make art or useful objects. I can do rudimentary woodworking projects, if I had the time I’d like to build my own furniture and kitchen cabinets.
That's cool. Ive always wanted to try having a home forge to do some smithing. Though, I also want to learn to weld and have not spent the time yet. If you can do basic woodworking/construction/welding and some electronics stuff I feel like you can basically do anything.
