I get why the feelings sucks. You're in your head and somehow only the worst possible outcomes ruminate. You've called the cops, good on you.

You're not in charge of the world, there ought to be others who are charged with taking care of that girl. Their failure in preventing her from showing up on your porch is not your fault either and she's their responsibility, not yours. Keep repeating that in your head.

By European standards nothing to write home about. By Asian standards, a Mount Everestrian protrusion.

Lenmy offers me the freedom to get mad at many different people running instances and not just one godforsaken company running roughshod over everything communities had created over years.

I'm not mad at anyone though because I don't share your views at all. I'm a happy Lemmy user.

And what is Lemmy dot world acting like at night?

Proton has a good calendar service but if you want to change color labels you need to be on the more expensive tier - and they don't really tell you that ahead of time. Which p'ed me off so much I moved my calendar to a Nextcloud server instead, which works great. It also got me off Keep, Drive, and I'm working on Gmail.

Respect it as art and entertainment people like. Personally, could not care less.

You're probably right that we need something like that to appeal to the masses. Sadly.

I think the handcrafted feed will always reign supreme.

Why don't you ask your AI about how to achieve objectivity in your fake writing?

This is something that is not universally true. You would not say something like that if you've ever traveled with small children.

Word of mouth and time. Lots of it. All the ones that need you to be your own algorithm will take longer to gain acceptance with the general public. We'll need a few more Muskerbergian s-storms to motivate people away from the silos as well.

Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra. Shaka when the walls fell.

Well, I disagree with you.

but other thanthe anxiety there are no ill effects.

Anxiety, for some of us, is a bad thing in itself and not a negligible side effect. It may not be for you. And consequently I would not have advised you to stop googling medical problems.

But I felt that OP's anxiety was not helped by excessive googling. And it was in this spirit that I advised OP against it.
