Social Media Purge
10 April 2023
I have purged my social media accounts of all content, or I have otherwise archived/hidden all my posts.
I definitely feel like my attention span was taking a hit.
I bought books that were stacking up unread.
My lists were piling up with shows and movies to watch.
I have moved all of my news consumption to a new RSS feed reader that I set up on a Raspberry Pi. No more endless scrolling. Refresh the feeds, read the feeds, and move on with my life!
I am now up to almost 150 feeds strong! They cover topics from local, world, tech, AI, space, wrestling, and motorcycle news.
I'm not trying to isolate myself. I'm just trying to claw back my attention and use it in an INTENTIONAL way instead of letting it be co-opted and used aimlessly now.
Please still feel free to email me or send me a message on Signal.
