I have never been interested in making bread my whole life but here I am looking at all the bread people are posting and I'm starting to think that maybe I should try making bread.
I didn't claim to be a full blown hoarder, I said I used to be somewhat of a hoarder. OP also said they didn't have that extreme of a problem with hoarding either so thought it could still be worth sharing what helped me.
I used to be somewhat of a hoarder and I found it helpful to ask myself things like "When have I used this past few years?" or "Would I even remember this thing if I got rid of it?" etc.
If you have stuff you never really look at or use and maybe never even think about until you find it again then why keep it?
Idk, doesn't seem to actually be about screens themselves and more about multitasking or what we watch on the screens.
Don't know how to do fancy quoting but this is the conclusion from the article:
Evidence suggests that mental relief comes not from adding new coping strategies, but from reducing the number of demands placed on the brain.
Here are some evidence-based strategies that support genuine restoration:
Reduce digital multitasking, such as using your phone while watching television. This lowers stress and cognitive strain.
Limit task-switching and interruptions. This improves focus and reduces cognitive fatigue.
Spend time in low-stimulation environments, including quiet spaces and outdoor settings. This supports mood and emotional well-being.
Unwind with analog or low-novelty activities, such as reading print, journaling, gentle movement, or device-free walking. These pastimes allow mental engagement without overload.
The goal is to intentionally reduce mental load, not to abandon all digital devices.
To improve well-being in our overstimulated society, it’s important to understand the difference between feeling as though you are unwinding and actually allowing your brain and body to recover.
I used to help random people with bosses in Elden Ring a while back. Ended up helping the same person with Mohg about 10 times one night. They unfortunately died a lot, usually at the end but we often got close. When we finally did it we both jumped up and down and did some emotes. It was nice and wholesome.
Summit! It's what I'm using and the dev has a community on Lemmy and replies to requests or questions frequently, and posting patch notices etc. Definitely recommend it
Edit: I misread your comment and thought you were asking. But yeah summit is great and I've heard good things about voyager too
