What are your favorite websites?
In the age of Streaming, Social Media, and Influencers there is so much content being made and uploaded to the internet. It can be so time consuming just LOOKING for things to enjoy that some days you end up not finding anything. Reddit filled a void where searchability met functionality that made it an amazing place to live online.
Up until the controversial API changes and subsequent fallout I would spend a minimum of an hour each day just browsing Reddit. Afterwards? Not so much. I removed the apps from my phone, I stopped actively visiting it at home, and whenever I would search for something I would try to avoid clicking links to reddit threads.
I never got into TikTok, which amuses me because some of my friends use it and will share links from there. Knowing what it is and relatively how it works I made the conscious decision to avoid it. I don’t click their links.
Instead I started to use Instagram more frequently, and flipping over to Facebook more often than I did in the past.
And of course, given my past with Twitch and the friends I’ve made through streaming, Twitch is another site I spend a lot of time. Even if I’m just lurking in chat.
Back to Instagram for a moment. I’ve also been trying to get back into painting miniatures for tabletop games, so I’ve occasionally posted pictures of my work over there. If you’re curious about that you can check it out here, and maybe I’ll start sharing those pictures here on the blog too!
