The Lemmy equivalent of r/195 on Reddit. Not officially affiliated (yet).
Any moderators from the reddit can have mod here, just ask.
There's another 196 over on 196@lemmy.blahaj.zone
Most people use the Blahaj.zone one so this place isn't very active.

My experience as a statistician with a background in public health academia is thar most do not. While any individual who uses Marijuana has a heightened risk to other drug use (though a link to heavy alcohol use is more common) the vast majority of Marijuana users do not go on to harder drug use.
Whatever the averages are the pocket of drug use in my community has caused violence, drug abuse, and mental slowing. Even light uses causes people to slow mentally. There are a lot of problems besides using hard drugs. It's better to just stay clean. It's not worth it.
