    Because posting here largely feels like shouting into the empty wilderness. After a while with no response or even eyeballs on the post, I just give up. Apparently what I find interesting isn’t what anybody else does.

        Embedded systems development. “Asian” philosophers (moral, political, and cosmological). China in its good points and bad points. Role-playing games that are not D&D of any variety. Languages. Musical instruments. Non-mainstream programming languages. …

    I suppose my standards about what I find interesting enough to publish on Lemmy are high, so I don’t post unless that bar is met.

    1. Mostly I don’t have/take the time. To be more precise, I think what interest me are discussions and debates. And to be honest, some people here seems to have more time than me. I had to drop discussions that were interesting, or had to abandon a debate because it was to long. It is especially problematic in what I would call “confrontational debate”, where some people either have way more time than others, or even seems to voluntarily “buy time”.

    2. I think attention is precious and don’t feel legimate to take some of other for me (specifically offline where I don’t know the people I’m talking to). I know it is stupid because I myself take my responsibility for the content I allocate time to. But I can’t help being harder on myself than on other on these things.

    3. I love Lemmy technically, but also because of its leftist community. But I must admit I have some criticism against government. China, North Korea, or even Russia are hot subject here, and I don’t feel like it can be sincerely discussed. Which is a shame, because I live Ina western country and I do agree that propaganda is a key problem when it comes to those subject. And I would love to try and understand some complex issues. (I do understand these are difficult subject, and do not want to disqualify anyone thinking differently than me. It’s just that I don’t feel like people try to understand how each other came to different conclusion, but just want to aggressively “win” the debate.
