We all know about keeping track of passwords, not to trust the wrong people, don’t feed trolls, use adblockers, use VPNs .etc
I’d like to know if anyone had some more minor ways to improve one’s experience online. I have one.
One is, is that sometimes not reading the comments on generally anything is a long-term benefit. I say this because, a lot of the time, like on YouTube, people just removed out stupid things like “WHO’S WATCHING IN 2024 GAIS?!”. And it’s just garbage reading that wastes your time. I also even avoid reading comments on Rule34 because a lot of time I just visualize overweight guys just oozing oils and smelling foul. All the while naked at home saying shit like “uhh huhuh i’d fuck her hard and fuck her brains out! I’m such a naughty boy!”. Like, they’d be lucky if they can even see their pecker under so many folds.
What I’m trying to say though is that, decide what you feel is worth reading the comments to than reading everything. It helps you go through things faster. Not everyone has interesting things to say, it just depends what content you come across. If it’s porn, not worth reading all the cringe-inducing comments of people failing at dirty talk. If it’s an article and you have curiosity, then feel free.
Ignore the critics
Let’s say you’re planning to read a new book, watch a Movie or, in my case, considering purchasing a new video game. I usually check review sites like Metacritic to see if it was well-received. For some reason, critics always seem to praise the worst games and shame the best ones.
I know I could just skip reading these reviews, but since I don’t have a lot of money, I need to make smart choices. Sometimes, the reviews from the users help a lot.
