Having a routine- every Sunday I walk into town and get a nice coffee/cake and read for a while and just be around people. If I stay inside for too long I will start to self isolate.
Hobby- I go to a couple of choirs during the week. It helps me get out of the house and it's an activity that stops me dwelling on things. You're usually too busy focusing on the music to think of anything else. Singing also helps you regulate your breathing which is supposed to help with relaxation and sleeping.
Spend time in or around nature, even if that's a pet. Being around green space can help ground you. Being around animals can be a massive boost. Go to the park with a book and spot dogs.
Medication - this has helped me more than anything but isn't for everyone. I also had a few rounds of therapy but didn't get loads out of it, but it may well work for you.
I think the biggest impact is that the early adopters that have left reddit are the heavy users that respected the flow and community of Reddit. So the good of Reddit has come here, but the general populace and the keyboard warriors haven't figured it out yet, fortunately.
It does feel fresh though, like Reddit did when Digg first ate shit and everyone left for Reddit
Ehh I just like people owned things vs corporate overlords dictating what I can do or see. Keyboard warriors are here tho, have seen many an argument around here about whether to defederated this or ban that or nuke some country.
Instead of visiting the Mall of America and shopping at only what the mall will offer, using outdated infrastructure-- you can instead visit a variety of towns ("instances") which each host their own cute boutiques ("communities") specializing in a particular sort of item (whatever the topic of the community is). The instances can have their own rules that apply to its communities, but communities can also make their own rules, like a shop can. Skip the crowds and barely functional Supermall experience and find a better place to engage in discussion and get information.
Participating in a competitive event where bathroom breaks are minimal or non-existent, such as a long-distance, multi-day gaming or eSports tournament.

Engaging in a survival challenge or a bet where the person has to limit food intake and avoid defecating for a certain period of time.
Undergoing a specific medical procedure or test that requires limiting food intake and avoiding bowel movements for a few days.
Participating in a scientific experiment or study where they have to control their diet and bowel movements.
Partaking in a performance art piece or protest where he's limiting his bodily functions as part of the statement.
Attending an event (like a music festival or convention) where bathroom facilities are notoriously unclean or inconvenient, and they want to avoid using them as much as possible.

Participating in a reality TV show or film production where bathroom breaks are limited or inconvenient.
Engaging in a personal challenge or self-imposed discipline practice related to endurance or minimalism.
Okay I'll give in a tiny bit only because this barely narrows it down: one of them is ridiculously close to what is actually the case. Like, I'm actually doing the thing you mentioned in the point, just your reasoning is wrong.
P.S.: The actual reasoning is borderline impossible for anyone to guess so just stop trying guys.
He’s probably out on the Hajj, they travel to some of the key points by train. The bathroom facilities are not ideal and that’s why he is asking for ways to trim down his poop times.
As part of the hajj, the entire community travels to various points in and around the city. One of the points that’s only for a few days is in Mina, which is basically a tent city outside the official boundaries of the city of Makkah. When they are in the tent (it’s a fancy tent, air conditioned but with zero privacy with 20 other guys), the bathrooms there are communal, which in turn are not the cleanest in the world. Most of them are the eastern squatty potty style. Let’s just say not going there for a poop seems very tempting. The counter to it is, most of the food there is free, and it is really good… So it’s a very delicate balance to say the least.
This is all speculation on my part, given the timing of it. For all we know it could be some weird kinky camping thing the guy is into!
You're going to a Burning Man-style event and you don't want to poop on June 25th because it's Anne Frank's birthday and in your pursuit to become the true Hide & Seek Champion you think it would be best/hilarious to "Anne Frank" your poop for three days

Congratulations, you're the first person in the world to use that sentence.
Why would he not want to say the reason though? If that was the case, the OP could just say he is a shy pooper. Instead we now suspect that this is some kind of orgy with a fetish.
Since op is talking about walking and staying in a tent I’m guessing op will need all the mental and physical faculties working instead of being sedated.
I’ve been intrigued by this, the only source I’ve seen about the Lemmy devs being tankies is one user posting on Mastodon that they reported quite pretty despicable tankie comments on that instance, and the Lemmy devs (who also admin the instance) refused to take them down. Which I would get and I don’t think it makes them agree with the comments, in the “I disapprove of what you say but I will fight to the death your right to say it” kinda way.
Was there anything else? This is the first I hear of them actually removing content.
I mean, all you have to do is click on Dessalines' profile, his banner image is Chairman Mao. He also posted on reddit years ago bitching that r/Socialism banned him for his beliefs, which of course were posting LaRouche cult nazbol nonsense and genocide denial. It's all right there on Google dude. Plus you can see removals on the mod logs.
