Which other websites do you visit regularly? Other than facebook Insta Twitter etc, which other websites do you visit often? When I get bored from those social websites, then I come here and try to answer some questions here. So other than digital point, and social websites, what else do you visit often? Specially when feeling very bored?
I spend a bit of time on game specific websites. If I'm working on a gnarly problem then I'll be on tech sites. One of the few newsletters I actually read is css tricks and I'll click through to learn more. 99% of it is stuff I'll never use but I'm intrigued by the possibilities.
I was a member on 3 other sites besides DP. One was a French language site that has since shut down. Another was a British site that went offline earlier this month. The last remaining site is a site based out of the U.S. I spend much more time there than I do on here. That site is growing while this one is dying a slow death. I will be surprised if DP were to last another 2 years, unless changes are made or the site changes hands.
Youtube has to be the most used platform for me, and you might not count it as social media. I subscribe to Youtube Premium and it's just intuitive to have ad free videos run in background. Other than that, I often find myself on Bootstrap 5 Docs and Laravel Docs, because I just recently started using Laravel and doing my first project in Bootstrap 5.
None. Used to post on one popular, similar to DP forum, not anymore. I don't get the concept of that place, when you have too many ticks with no dog to suck the blood from, what's the point? @JEET what English speaking popular sites do you frequent (other than insta, fb, twitter, etc)?
@qwikad.com I sometimes visit stackoverflow, and sometimes some finance websites, nothing much. This is why I asked. I was so bored... LOL @sarahk Newsletter like this sounds good. @Spoiltdiva Can you please PM me the name of the US site? And the British one also please, the one that got shut down. I like DP most because I consider some of its members as friends, like you sarahk, deathshadow mmerlinn qwickad JR and some others. I am also a member of v7n and webmasterwworld etc, too strict in their rules, too impersonal. I can't remember last time I visited them... DP is so much better... I'd hate to see this site die. @jaymi Yes, youtube is also a social media site. But I don't visit it much. Too time consuming to watch a 10 minute video to find something small. And then those fake info and conspiracy theory videos on top of it... I think 70% content on youtube falls in just those 2 categories, fake or conspiracy.
This actually is a pretty annoying thing, some video titles only mention a single thing (what i want to see), but the video is almost 10 minutes, and the actual scene that was mentioned in the title was 14 seconds! You have to either watch the whole video until you get to the point, or, you have to skip until you find it and hope you didn't miss it, otherwise you have to start from the beginning.
For me it depends on my mood, but mostly tech related websites for sure. I have to agree about the sentiment of Youtube. About the only time I really watch it is if my grandkids are visiting and want to watch some kid talk about toys. Well as long as they are happy it makes my day smoother .
that everybody is aware of the majority of people use social media websites, and more people are using mobile devices to access these sites.
First, I would Like your post if my Like button was not still broken. I have friends to this day from Usenet groups, listservs, etc., from the 1990's. It is a shame that they just about all have been disrupted by the new social media.
@uday_yadav2 I actually forgot my linkedin username itself! LOL Never enjoyed that site, not sure why...
LinkedIn for new partnership opportunities Youtube for study or just for fun A lot of news websites Pinterest sometimes
When I'm bored, I get distracted from the Internet altogether. I prefer to read or just go for a walk to a new place
@charlesh96 I should also try doing this. Internet has really cut us off from the real world outdoors.
I used to explore on google search about digital marketing. Also, i am very much interested in learning new facts. youtube videos, cooking blogs, interior designs inside homes, furnished ideas, etc
