The main issue I’m having with liftoff is that I cannot upvote or comment posts from other instances with my lemmy.ml account, so I’m still using jerboa
I can upvote and comment on posts from any instance.
I mean you can if you have multiple subscription or if you do it through your main instance, but that’s a feature all clients have and I think they do it in a more intuitive way, conpared to LiftOff
AmateurRoomPorn, FemaleLivingSpace, MaleLivingSpace and similars. Plenty of ideas on how to decorate my home, suggestions,…
OneOrangeBraincell, Flonkers, MurderMittens, ToeFeathers, PouchCatatoes and other ‘niche’ cat subreddits. I can survive with the already existing IllegallySmolCats and Cats, I guess.
GifRecipes, ShittyGifRecipes, ShittyFoodPorn. Ones for learning new stuff to cook, others… for learning what NOT to cook thankyouverymuch.
I do, or moreso I should say I enjoy the feeling I get while working out. Seeing my body with a pump, feeling like I just put everything into that last set even if it wasn’t the strongest I’ve ever been on that exercise or the best form I’ve ever had.
It’s not the “runners high” for me, but an appreciation that no matter what I get done that day (or not) that I went to the gym and maintained/progressed my physical training. It’s like coming from a hard day at work and looking at a well made bed, knowing no matter how shit your day was that you’ve put effort in and will see it returned. It also turns out that when you work out more often than not that you’ll eventually notice you feel “off” when you don’t. You feel happier and less like a blob of a human even if your body composition still reflects it. You can feel the muscle a little bit firmer and theres a bit more pep in everything you do. Like you’re more capable of just moving around in day to day life.
I’ve been a consistent Mon-Fri gym goer for about 11 years now and I don’t see myself stopping anytime soon. I don’t lift as heavy as I used to because I’m trying to keep my joints in good health when I’m older, but with mind/muscle concentration and controlled movements you can trigger hypertrophy even with weights that won’t end in knee replacements by age 45.
It’s a fun form of fitness, and I like it more than running. While I mostly enjoy it for the way it makes me feel after the gym, there’s nothing like looking at yourself in a mirror with an extra 50 pounds of lean muscle than you started with and the ability to put more weight over your head than you could originally deadlift.
You could get creative with a premium account “A” where you can designate another person/account “B”(can be free account) with emergency access after a waiting period.
When B requests access it’ll send an email where A can approve/deny access immediately; or if you’re completely locked out, B will be granted access after the waiting period that you can set passes.
B can either be another person you trust, or it could just be a written backup that can be locked somewhere safe but not accessed on a daily basis.
If you want, after designation you can cancel premium and the emergency access will still be active, you just cannot add/edit who has access.
Kind of? I was in college walking on campus in broad daylight. I pass under this skywalk, with nobody in my general vicinity. As I do, I feel what feels like someone was walking past me coming from the opposite, locking their arm into mine. I got pulled back enough to stumble.
Sure enough, nobody nearby, no objects right near me or anything I could have accidentally gotten caught up on. Still have no idea what happened there. And for the record, this was before I ever had tried alcohol and I don’t really do drugs, so I can’t blame those.
It was weird, but I haven’t really made heads or tales of it. Hadn’t really encountered anything like that before and haven’t since, but it was just bizarre.
Oh lol. Well I was certainly confused. Had to do a double take to make sure I wasn’t just so zoned out I walked into something, and after I confirmed I didn’t I just had no idea what to think. It was truly unexplainable, at least for me.
I like the feeling when I’m working very hard. Whether that’s lifting weights, hiking, mountains, or just moving heavy things I generally enjoy that feeling of exertion.
In terms of you starting to enjoy it, the only suggestion that I would make is that the only way through is forward and keep it going until it becomes enjoyable for you. That might sound counterintuitive but ultimately little in life that’s easy is worthwhile and the effort that you’ll put in will be rewarding.
I enjoy how when you connect to it from an Android phone, it’s like:
What in the fuck do you want here?! We’re not spending computing resources on you, dumbass. Go, send it to your heathen friends!
