Nah…
Single-handedly helping the fediverse thrive.
Which is a radical act to fight tech billionaires like Zuckerberg and Musk. Who have both been reasonably accused of enabling some incredibly awful stuff.
Contributing to the fediverse is probably not the most efficient way to fight for human rights and against billionaires and fascists, but it certainly makes some sort of tiny contribution. So I wouldn’t call it pointless. :)
Hmm…
And here I thought you were the biggest commenter here. That person is beating you ten-fold.
Picard Maneuver posts main topic content, which is probably more important. Can’t comment if there’s nothing to comment on 🤷🏻♂️
Organized sports.
Loved sports and playing as a kid and was exceptionally gifted at basically all of them I ever tried. Ended up loving a few and before I had a chance to understand the vast difference in joy vs. occupation playing them through college.
Looking back, I didn’t enjoy any of the school sports from jr. highschool onward. I still loved the games and playing and practicing on my own, the sport itself, but the organized “competitive” part of it was awful full of horrible adults and structures and painful situations that ate up an enormous amount of time.
I could have played recreationally for 2% of the time and still have enjoyed myself just as much and still loved the sport. The sports-industrial complex in the US brainwashed me into thinking their path was the only way to continue with my love of the sport.
Joomla.
Drupal.
It’s rough when a project dies and years of contributions by thousands of people succumb to bitrot. Such a waste.
Funny enough: Drupal was where I went after giving up on Joomla and it had the same fate for me. It had 1000 pounds of functionality for a simple web app.

Yes. Work is that useless investment of time.
