Welcome to the community of so-called Digital Minimalists! We're community of people who seek for silence in such a noisy world and balance between real and digital worlds. Rules of this community include:

Be honest with yourself and others. Seriously, if you're not honest with yourself and pretend to be someone else, you're not going anywhere. The first step to progression is acceptance, isn't it?
Be polite to others and respects each others opinions. No matter what your thoughts about privacy, Big Tech, politics, nature and etc are, let's keep all discussions family-friendly and not overwhelm ourselves.
Keep it theme-oriented. This community is not made to discuss politics, privacy-issues and climate change. It's about balance and harmony. We could discuss those topics if they are related to Digital Minimalism, but not if they're purely self-oriented. Thank you :)

Unadvertedly, DM and the Fedi go hand in hand. Fedi is basically boring (not in the sense of boring in itself, but there's no slot machine behavior that's bringing you something new every single time you open your app), so once you finish up with your feed, you start thinking what to do next.

At this moment, you either

a. browse the web to check for something new
b. try to think of an activity outside your computer

(at least that's my experience)
