And the worst part is - that I know its where, valuable knowledge sits tight, and not used. That thing will cause guilt and pain.
So I decided to solve this puzzle from the other side: just stop saving. I left only with Notes. I dont save articles, videos. I dont even use social media, (except Reddit) cuz it overwhelms me.

... See moreAbsolutely love this piece. Still need to process though. Too many thoughts. I struggle with every step btw, cuz Im that ADHD hamster constantly saving content, that I have 500 articles, 1000 videos, books, notes. Its killing me.
Peaceful life online:
1) Quit social media (cuz of over-optimized content, clickbait)
2) Read only blogs and newsletters (nor Linkedin, Twitter, Medium)
3) Keep Reddit for fun (the only place which survived, cuz users there cheap)
4) Replace constant consuming with writing notes, reading notes, producing stuff.
In a time of over-optimised content I adore aesthetics of standalone blogs, which run on pure HTML, plus some bits of CSS.
Those are pieces out of infinite matrix of social media, like LinkedIn, Twitter, Medium. They don’t run after hype, outreach, likes. They simply don’t care.
I will edit this table a bit and share it here.
I have a feeling, that most companies on the internet work against the people.
1) Like, media feeds u negative sht, cuz it addicts u more, than positive content. Its more profitable.
2) social media wants u to spend more time on the feed, it doesnt care whether u connect with friends or watch random videos. It wants u to do the second thing.
3)
... See moreI love newsletters, its fine to get them by email, but other companies send me bs, its the reason I dont want to open my mail and read.
