  • Have you tried emptying your lungs? It sounds crazy, but you actually don’t have to completely fill your lungs with air, just enough so that you can last a good while underwater and so that you’re no longer buoyant. It takes some practice, and you might panic a little bit at first, but once you get used to that, it just becomes second nature.

    The only times I hold as much air as possible are when I’m trying apneas (holding my breath as long as possible), but I stay near the surface for that and I remain inmobile. (Also, make sure there’s more people with you and that you’re signing that you’re fine)














  • I was already on Mastodon when the API price increase thing happened on reddit and my favourite client (infinity) became useless. I wasn’t going to use the bloat-fest that is the reddit app, so I switched to Lemmy in “protest”. Now I’m using eternity (a fork of infinity) and I have found a place in this community where I’m incredibly happy. I’m never going back to that shithole and I don’t miss anything from there. There’s a lot of karma-farming and every single person there reads exactly the same. There’s no real discourse. The only times I use it (and through a web browser) is when I’m looking for solutions to some tech-related issue, and that is, if I haven’t found the solution here already.
