    Preaching. I literally don't even care if the places I apply to for work find it strange I don't keep it-- I won't. Even just having an account with one of those scrape-happy megacorps is too much of an opsec hazard, and FAR too much of a mental health hazard.

      People do look at you strange when you tell them you don't use social media. Obviously, I don't generally mention that I call for revolution on the Lemmygrad. It's a marvel of our age, how normal social media has become. Well, a marvel of the power of fin-tech capital. (I'm assuming the fin in fin-tech means finance but if it didn't it does now.)

      We've got depressed af adults looking at depressed af kids, identifying the cause as too much unhealthy screen time but unable to see it's contributing to their own poor mental health, too. For me – sounds like it's similar for you – it's good to touch grass occasionally but this place keeps my mind healthier. But it's built different. And the company helps.
