I think I need to follow fewer accounts that post about news and current affairs. I haven't been enjoying scrolling my home timeline much over the past few weeks...

@a2318 The solution: filters for certain keywotds. No unfollows necessary.

I filter out most #USPol toots.

@gisiger yes, that's a good suggestion. I think it would help to immerse myself in a new hobby to give me something else to read instead... Probably cheaper than trying to get my hands on a new vintage watch to distract myself!
