When I was on Reddit I felt like my opinion didn’t matter. But here it just feels more open and free.

I'm not sure it matters more TBH... but I basically stopped Reddit for 2 days, and now just get drawn back to read the occasional post - but don't bother commenting.

With the downtick in Reddit, I remembered that I hadn't read a book for a month or two, so I headed over to Annies Archive and grabbed a bunch to add to my Kindle...

So I now downloaded 3 versions of 'Great Expectations' and am reading that book before watching them - but also have "Welcome to the MonkeyHouse" by Kurt Vonnegut and "The Book Thief" grabbed from Annie's Archive.

Basically now I'm spending less than half the time on net than I was before.
