I’m a recovered arguing-on-the-internet addict. In fighting my addiction, I’ve learned quite a bit about avoiding triggers, policing my own behavior, and curating what I see.
This has resulting in a much more pleasant online experience and much more positive interactions than most people have. I’ve written several articles with tips on how to improve your online life, which will result in you having a better mood, more positive outlook, and more free time overall.
I’ve also written a how-to guide to removing all the hate, anger, and politics from your Twitter feed, called How to Make Twitter Pleasant in 10 Minutes or Less.
