What a distinguished gentleman.
Can confirm I’m one of those folks.
I’m curious if other kbin will see a similar increase, although since we’re federated with Lemmy it doesn’t really matter as much to me so long as the Fediverse is gaining traction which is hopefully what is happening here after the Reddit fallout.
I might suggest a few things you can do if you’re trying to dejunk. The first is to use your old hardware for stuff like a game server,Nextcloud instance, or any number of things you could do to improve your digital QoL. I’d also try and give away old gear to folks you know that might be in need. For instance, I gave my old laptop to a writer friend of mine who I kid you not was writing on his phone, so I gave him my old laptop with a copy of Fedora Linux(Which I daily drive too, so I can help him if he needs any help w/ stuff) on it and he’s been using the hell out of that thing. The third thing I’d do if you can’t figure anything out to do with it is just to make sure its being stored in a place that’s out of the way and won’t cause storage issues for other stuff. Then you can just sit on it until it finds a use and if you do not have the space, just go ahead and get them recycled or something. I would definitely caution against keeping too much stuff as well as it really does negatively affect mental health.
Hope these ideas help some, good luck!
That’s what I’m doing at the moment.
I started cycling to commute about a year ago and it’s been such a wonderful thing for my mental and physical health, not to mention my bank account. Beware that you may get sucked down the Not Just Bikes rabbit hole if you’re not careful and end up becoming a walkable/bikable cities advocate as I have.
It was clearly beef stroganoff.
