There's a reason I'm still using a seven year old monitor thats half broken and artifacts in the cold, lol. Hence why I'm looking forward to price reductions.

I only have one hobby and thats PC gaming and a bit of scripting. I don't sub to services, I don't have needless bills. It is what it is. :(

Honestly, that's what I'm currently doing. I've always chuckled at the cleverness of the name sh.itjust.works. I started on .world, but I forgot to migrate my 2fa because I switched from Google Authenticator to an open source one on a new phone and didn't take my lemmy token for some damn reason.

I'm only switching because I'm a neutral entity online when it comes to politics and identity. I use the internet to escape that, not dive into it. I don't mind seeing it, I just move along and let people be people. I'd rather not be potentially tied to an image or faction by association; its nothing against .ml or anything.

Honestly it depends on the price of these new models. I live check by check so buying 5x monitors over the years would be easier than paying a larger sum for a better one.

If I can afford these new ones I'll most likely go with those, but judging by the prices of the latest and greatest right now, I doubt I will be able to.

I like this view, because I have zero idea what I just walked in on. This account is just 16 days old and I'm just here to chat non-politics and doomscroll. And by 16 days old I mean like 4 because their acceptance email got sent to spam and I didn't notice it until then.

Tbh, I had no idea there were even factions or drama among the instances.

I think the most exciting part of this for me is the possible reduction in price for last gen OLED monitors.

Also if you had a single mother raising all the kids and working overtime at some factory.

I'd usually be found at school hugging a bottle of gingerale and periodically power puking in the bathroom when I was really sick.

Very rarely did I get out of it, and usually it was for strep throat or stomach infection.

You don't really know it until you stop watching videos for like a week. Suddenly you want to do your favorite things again; try things yourself again.

I used to play Star Wars 4th Edition Pen and Paper RPG with a 40 year old and his 32 year old wife when I was 16. They were just harmless geeks, like me.

If anything, my mom making snarky comments about the 40 year old guy really soured our relationship for a while. My friend who was my age and who also played with us sent her a picture in the mail of the 3 of us holding hands under a rainbow. She was pissed.

It's fine. Your son could just as easily be friends with someone his age that's a psychopath. It's in the person, not the age. At 18 you're going to have to trust his judgement a little more.
